Mars 1939! [SpaceQuest/RuneQuest]

[Astromancer]

Mars is a radiation hot spot, Venus will kill you in 8 seconds and the Moon is a barren rock. I cant get over the facts. Obviously, this is a problem for me and sci fi pulp gaming. I'll take it that I should never game this genre. Ever.

And yet Chaos Gods, demon swords, elf-like aliens, and magic, never seem implausible to you. What a special reality filter.

Sounds like theres a general shortage of clothing throiughout the universe. :lol:

I like to think of it as an abundance of skin. Warm, lovely, tender, skin!

From a similar, but distinctive point of view, so are naked babes and hunks with swords and ray guns.

Planetary Romancer is a great Genre to link Fantasy and Science Fiction. A RuneQuest:Mars 1939! would be a perfect place to put rules on switching your Traveller characters to RuneQuest and back again.
