StarMaster

[Nazareth]

Can't speak for Jman, but if I remember my Starmaster days correctly and it was a very long time ago under Schubel & Son, what captured my imagination was your ability to choose your type of home world and design your race, ideally to take advantage of the environment you chose. Your race could almost be anything you could imagine. There were a few restrictions plus advantages and penalties for choosing various characteristics. For example, if you chose claws as your appendages, you might receive a disadvantage in construction. You could choose the number of limbs, mode of movement, scales, skin, etc. You got to choose your gov. type. Some choices effected your ability to research, build, combat, etc.

I'm sure Jman's memory is better than mine and can correct and/or add to this somewhat. Not sure what fired Jman's imagination, but would interested in hearing it. Hopefully my memory isn't too far off the mark.
