Which SF/Space opera Universe for Rogue Stars?

[Earther]

If I could find miniatures to represent the various races, I might use the Star Frontiers rpg setting. I love the races in the game. There just doesn't seem to be any minis to represent them other than the original game minis and they are 25mm and made of lead.

Best Yazirian range ever sculpted, and the solitary Vrusk is okay.  The Dralasite doesn't do anything for me but then anyone should be able to kitbash Dralasite figs.  The utter lack of Sathar is the real problem, and hard to overcome.  I'm honestly tempted to "re-imagine" them as these Deadlands Hell On Erath figs



with suitable added scifi weapons and gear.

I was a fan of Mike Resnik's  "Santiago:  A Myth of the Far Future".  It was a great yarn in my college years. 

Anyway,  I think "Rogue Stars" would fit very well into that universe.  Space gunslingers, bounty hunters,  big game hunters, lawmen and villains all seem to fit very well.

Maybe i will have a try with some cyberpunk/shadowrun-like setting or blade runners VS replicants...things like that

Mel Brooks Spaceballs with a bit of MST 3K thrown in for me.  Since I like to have fun.
Just saying.

Dean over at Starship Combat News would be proud of you.  He's still using Gooseman as his avatar pic after all these years.

Which is at it should be, because Shane is still awesome.

Yeah. You know the same guy owns the rights to the series. I've got some great ideas from that show.

I've been assembling notes and a list possible models to do a riff on Star Wars heavily inspired by the old SPI classic 'Freedom in the Galaxy!' ; a bit retro-sci-fi and mix in some of my other favorite sources and that's my setting.

Speaking of Star Wars wannabes, how about the old mid-80s Star Ace RPG setting from Pacesetter Games?  I had a serious attack of nostalgia the other day and grabbed a copy off ebay.  Pleased to see it's just as cheesy as I remembered it being.  Still, it's a viable RS universe for sure.

Had never heard of Star Aces but just read some reviews and it sounds almost tailor-made for Rouge Stars action!
