With few exceptions, most of our RPG campaigns took place in space.

  • Star Trek The Role-Playing Game (FASA)
  • Doctor Who (FASA)
  • Star Wars: The Role Playing Game (West End Games)

More recently we’ve played Hyperlanes (based on D&D 5E system) and Traveller (Mongoose).

Over the years my group tried to get into other Trek RPGs, but we seemed to have a better grasp on FASA Trek’s rules than any of the later incarnations.

We did start a FASA Trek campaign which we may get back to, eventually.

Doctor Who was short lived, as I only recall a handful of printed adventures (internet says 7) and I think we played them all.  It was the first system where I created my present day self as a non-player character who hung around the TARDIS most of the time.

Star Wars RPG was a favorite of mine, if only for the way I ended it.  Since my PC/NPC was a bounty hunter, I turned the party of Rebels over to the Empire, thus ending the campaign.
