Alternity Rulemaster Guide Book

Alternity was the first generic Scifi RPG we discovered or the first Scifi in general if you consider Star Wars to be SciFantasy as I do. While by today's standards the character creation was labored and time consuming, some character creation options and stats were unbalanced, and systems sometimes a bit clunky, at the time it was cutting edge.

While now it's outdated and a few attempts to try it out again fizzled, I still haven't seen anything that seems to replace it for IP-free generic Scifi systems. Perhaps I haven't looked hard enough, but in my mind Alternity sits on its moldering throne, now rendered useless and doddering by age but with no clear successor to replace it.
