Oh, and I have a new draft of my BoV Companion in case someone is interested in taking a look to it and give me some feedback.

What's in the companion?
 

When I discovered BoV some time ago, I was thinking about using it with a Star Trek setup (see post #185). After reading the manual more carefully, I made some suggestions (post #192). Jasales liked them, and suggested me to work in the corresponding rules, so I started writing an "appendix" (renamed as "companion" later) with new careers, new space travel systems, more weapons... (post #210), and now I have a very-first draft with a couple of new careers, an extended list of space travel systems (I'm thinking about the trip duration rules now). The only problem is that I have had little free time lately to keep working on them. Once I have a first version, my intention is to extend it to the Star Trek universe.

Anyway, if somebody wants to take a look and give me constructive feedback, just tell me.
 

Jasales, have you made any modification to your game since you sent it to me? By the way, I'm reading "Barbarians of the aftermath", it's great!

Hi, everybody:

I'm currently writing a small Companion volume for BoV, just for fun. I'm working on new careers, new space travel systems, more weapons (thanks a lot, jasales!), etc.

One of the things I want to do is to offer more information about each career (both current and new ones):
1) a descriptions of the Attributes that career should stand out
2) which skills describe that career
3) include examples of well-known characters (from sci-fi movies, series, literature, games...) with that career

By doing this, I have realized that Agent/Spy and Corporate Executive/Political Operative are quite similar, in fact, they are too similar, since I have had problems for distinguishing which of both careers a character belongs to. So:

1) may you give me (or suggest) more information about the description of those careers?
2) if I am not the only one with that problem, maybe it would not be a bad idea to suggest nerosfiddle to check it in his rules

Bye!

By the way, any web where to look for sci-fi images under Creatice Commons License or something like that?

Please, don't missunderstand me, I am not telling nerosfiddle how to manage his game and which rules to use or not to use. I'm just telling what I think is true, that his rules (simple and effective) will be much probably used by other GMs for playing other scifi settings :-)

I have no problem in trying to convert my ideas into rules as soon as I have time for it. Anyway, beware that I'm not very good at that. Constructive criticism will be wellcome :-)  

By the way, thanks a lot for sharing your rules, they're great!
