Cool but where are the wookies?

Incidentally your layout skills have come a long way Clash.  Looking good!  As usual I'm feeling a bit dejected :D

Actually, when I brought this to the table for the players to create their characters - along with another six aliens created from scratch for this campaign - the first thing anyone said was "Where's the Wookies?"  My son Klaxon created them there at the table for use by another player who played a wonderful Wookie.

You shouldn't! Your Traveller Star Wars looked great! :D

You have Nunb the co-pilot from Jedi as an example. Cool.  Always good to see rules used like this for various settings.  Awesome to read that your players enjoyed it and that your son slammed out the Wookie like that.  Rock on with this flyingmice!

Now do Star Trek, which I think would be a totally natural fit for In Harm's Way.

Thats cool, expand on it a bit more with the races and re-load it here, if you don't mind adding the Wookies, I would like to give it a go.

You mean the aliens I created for the game, as opposed to the ones I adapted? Plus the Wookie? No problemo! I cut the added aliens out of the package to lighten it. The Wookie was never in the package, so I'd have to add that in. I also have a play area/sector.

Here's Starwars-ish Set 2 (http://www.flyingmice.com/StarWarsish-Set2.pdf) for you, flyingcircus! The Wookie and new aliens, the Play Area, and A ship, the Albireo. Mostly hand written notes for play, scanned in.

Enjoy!

My wife was wondering why I was so busy last night... :D

It's not an adventure, but it's the bones from which an adventure could be constructed. I had two groups for troupe play - the crew of the Albireo - never actually used that name as they switched names randomly with each jump - and a small group of jedi/padawans previously hiding from the empire. We were playing with a different canon - IV had happened, but not I-III, while V and VI were on track. The Clone wars had happened about 100 years ago, not 20. The overarching plot had to do with unifying the little rebellions which weer springing up all over in response to the Death Star being destroyed. Darth Vader appeared briefly, on his way elsewhere, but the rest of the major characters were not in it. The campaign ended when the Jedi got the Mons Calamari to join in, leaving plenty of room for new campaigns, but not needing them.

Let us know how it goes.  You might have to release a book about it (with serial numbers filed off, I would suppose).
