I played Fringeworthy back in the day!  My Tri-Tac fav was Stalking the Night Fantastic.   If you ignored half the system (like most people did with AD&D), then the game ran fine.   It's very Stargate.

I have played the D20 Stargate via SpyCraft and its okay. SpyCraft 1e has much cooler feats than the 3.x PHB.   If you hand-wave the tactical stuff, you can play without the battlemap and keep things cinematic.   That said, there is that D6 version somewhere on the web.

Right here, in fact.

Having seen a review of 'Starblazer Adventures' on the big purple, I'm tempted to pick it up in time and use it for FATE-based Stargate play.  But, I'm holding out for a printed copy... it's far too large for me to comfortably read on the computer.

Ok, I have to ask. What is the big purple?

The color scheme gives it its nickname.

Thanks Kaz. I am learning new things every day.

Quote from: Terrible Tim;277316What is fringeworthy? I have been out of RPG for about 10 years.

TT.

Fringeworthy is an adventure game of exploring alternate earths and alien worlds linked by a vast network of roadways in an interdimensional space.  The standard role is that of a member of an exploration team working through the United Nations to build friendly relations with other worlds while bringing back knowledge and devices to help solve Earth's problems.

this can be quite challenging with the bizarre cultures, races, and natural laws that can be on a world in another universe.  Also the races that built this Fringesystem were all but destroyed by creatures called Mellor who still lurk out there.

Fringeworthy d20 has just been released.  You can find more information at //www.tritacgames.com and //www.tritacgamers.com

It's not your father's Fringeworthy anymore.

Wow, cool!

Welcome aboard, Golieth, and your news about Fringeworthy is really excellent.
If you should want a Pundit review of the new game, let me know...

Quote from: Danger;277259Would have been keen to see the d6 version of Stargate see the light of day.

You do realize that the parts written before the project's cancellation are up on the Net for download, right?

Quote from: stu2000;277257I still play Fringeworthy . . .

W00t!  There are so few of us left.

and Terrible Tim, you should of heard of it then. It was kind of popular 10-20 years ago.
