Just a short question for the moderators: Why is it not possible to upload files to the file area? I did a rework of the character sheet, I would like to post....
I did not know it was not allowing members to upload files. I fixed it now, and it should be working. Let me know if it is not. Thanks, Richard ... -- Richard...
Just to let you know, I uploaded an alternate character sheet. I am unhappy with the official character sheet for several reasons: 1. The vitality track seems...
Marquis, I really like the work you have done here. It looks great! Would you mind if I put this on the Rogue Games website as well? You will get full credit...
Hi Richard, yes, go ahead. I wouldn't mind at all. Glad that you like it. Next step will be a form-fillable version. - The Marquis "Alle sind ersetzlich. Guck'...
On Thu, Mar 6, 2008 at 12:41 PM, Marquis de Carabas ... Morning! ... It is going up in a few minutes. Send me an email offlist and let me know how you want to...
Greetings, I picked up the Thousand Suns PDF the other day and have been poring through it. Overall, I'm enjoying it. It's been a while since I bought an SF...
Hi James, I've got a question regarding defending in space combat. On page 185 it states that the sum of the target ship's DM + Pilot skill is subtracted from...
I really like the Bibliography in the back of the book, but I would have also like a filmography. I usually don't have as much time anymore for reading as I...
... I think that's a very good suggestion and I probably would have adopted it had I thought of it, but I didn't :) This is an example of what happens when two...
I didn't include a filmography because, truthfully, I wasn't heavily influenced by any specific movies or TV shows when creating the game. Now, I think the...
... Yes, I do want a compilation of these, but it'd be best to send them directly to me rather than on the list. I am compiling errata/corrigenda for inclusion...
... Will there be a way to get a "future printing of the book" at a reduced price, if you already own the previous version? Not that I mind paying again to...
... Poul Anderson's Terran Empire, in its early stages, is quite brutal. The short story "The Star Plunderer" describes its foundation. As the empire grows...
... A revision isn't in the immediate offing, so it's much too soon to say how we'd handle it, if we do it. When the time comes, we'll consider several options...
One of my favorite Imperial SF novels is The Mote in God's Eye by Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle. It's the one that springs to my mind right after Asimov's...
... I am just going over my house rules and putting everything into one document. I just noticed something. The idea of having the pilot roll is probably a...

What's the technical difference between Technical Sciences and Engineering? The description in the book are (to me) virtually the same. For instance: which...
... That's correct. The description is far more unclear than it should be, particularly since both skills indicate that you can build technological devices...
... No, they do not. For simplicity's sake, I didn't include Multiple Action rules here on the assumption that most "actions" a character takes on board ship...
When I was first reading about how James' envisions interstellar travel, I didn't particularly care for the idea of predetermined Jump Lines. I have to admit,...
... At least from my side there is. Thousand Suns is really fascinating. For all those years, I kicked around an idea for a science fiction setting and with...
Soooooo.... freakin' cool. I need to learn how to make form fillable PDFs. Any chance you could make the B&W version form fillable? As cool as the color...
... Exactly the same thing is happening to me. At first, I didn't like it. Now I do. ... I thought of something similar. My take: jump lines are the only safe...
... The color versions are based on the same artwork as the 1KS rulebook, so they should print fine in B&W. But I'll see what I can come up with. It's not high...
