I noticed there is no Off-topic or Misc Thread so I apologize if this is in the wrong place. I just wanted to share my creation with fellow Master of Orion fans
-Akito Yagami-
Sure we've all thought about it, and sometimes being the ruler isn't as exciting as what could actually be happening on the frontlines in the battle field of the Orion Universe.
So I've taken it upon myself to fan-create a Table Top, Pen & Paper Role-Playing game. It is based loosely on the Tri-Stat system and functions mainly on d12's.
As of right now I've done the rules for Basic Hand-to-Hand combat and the Races. but I'm currently working on Ship-to-Ship combat as well as Ship Types, Planet Types and Planet Sizes.
Obviously the MoO Universe has alot of explore from the adventure's point of view and being able to create a unique party makes things that much more interesting.
The idea originaly hit me when I was playing MoO2 a few years ago and I noticed that the Leaders you hire, are alot like your little party of Hero's who Help maintain planets, or attack enemies.
Obviously this game focuses more on exploration and adventure then taking over the universe as the PC Game does.
People may be asking why I decided to set it in Master of Orion 2 Period. One it is personaly my favorite game (MoO3 really disappointed me although it had alot of good story ideas). It also is after the Dark Age of the universe (MoO1) And during a time of Galactic Renaissance so to speak (New Races emerging and old races evolving).

Also to those who want to keep up with how the progress of the game goes I've created a blog for the game so please feel free to visit it

And on another note please visit Arioch's Page to see some of the art I'll be using. Arioch's Gallery. Also don't forget to view his web comic Outsider. It's been a big source of inspiration as far as the feel of the game.

But I would like a little feedback from the Community.
- Possible Ship/Planet schematics or designs would be most helpful
- Fanart and In Game art, I haven't been able to take in game screen shots of MoO2 (ala the Print Screen > Paint Method). So anything would be great!
-As well as any Feed back and/or encouragement.
If your interested in Helping please let me know.
Thank you all in Advance
