I will have a look at the new rules fix document and I hope it helps, but with SpaceQuest Mongoose have a true Tabula Rasa on which to build a system using their experiences from the problems with RQ.
It's not quite a clean slate. There have been a handful of attempts at BRP sci-fi, none of them successful. There was Future World from the Worlds of Wonder set, Ringworld RPG (based on Larry Niven's novels) and Other Suns (which Chaosium declined to publish so it was published by FGU instead).
Still, not much competition to beat, though![]()
There's also a BRP sci-fi game currently in development by Avenger.
