Is there any possibility of eventually retooling White Star to be independent of the OGL? Thanks!

It doesn't.
It's a compilation and update of White Star and the White Star Companion.

Yes! The only difference between this rules set and WB FMAG is that in WS:GE you receive a -2 to an attribute modifier at 3 and a +2 at 18. WB FMAG caps attribute modifiers at +1, I believe. Other than that, it's 100% seamless and even includes a section on integrating fantasy WB material with WS: GE.

Star Trek Adventures, as in the specific roleplaying game by Modiphius? Or do you mean for running Star Trek-inspired adventures? It is not compatible with Modiphius's own officially licensed STA RPG, but White Star could easily be used to run adventures inspired by Star Trek.

It needs a little tweaking to set the mood right, but yes, it works in a Star Trek-like setting.

This is a year late, but Five Year Mission is probably what you're looking for and it's compatible with White Star. https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/153685/Five-Year-Mission

I recently created a Star Knight character. The Star Sword Duelist gives a +2 bonus in GE but +1 in the White Box. Which is correct?

From White Star Galaxy Edition: "STAR SWORD DUELIST: The star sword is the preferred weapon of the Star Knights. They receive +2 to all to-hit rolls when wielding a star sword. All Star Knights start with a star sword at no cost at 1st Level."

Galaxy Edition is both a compilation and revision of the preexisting White Star material, so I'd go with what GE says.

Finally got the opportunity to start running this recently. My group is two sessions in so far, and we've been having a blast with it! I love the huge range of influences that permeate the character classes, aliens and creatures in the book, as well as other aspects. I was a little hesitant at using this rather than the original version at first because of all the extra 'features' included, but being optional I was able to pick and choose what to use. We didn't bother with the backgrounds and such. We did incorporate the minimalist Skills feature and a handful of allowances on the optional classes.

I really didn't expect to have as much fun as I've had running it, to be honest (I've never been a Traveler fan, and most space sci-fi RPG's have never really left me feeling fulfilled outside of Metamorphosis Alpha and StarSiege. This system has really struck a cord with myself and my group as a 'side trek' to our Swords & Wizardry game. Loving it!

However, I'm curious as to why...See more

You don't have the Purchaser flag next to your user name. Maybe reach out to DriveThruRPG to see if they can sort out the issue with your order? If you didn't purchase it here, they only allow reviews from people who have done so.

If you are also a publisher on DriveThru you can't review other publishers. It's a bit of a pain as the idea is to stop the few bad apples from bombing their competetitors with negative reviews.

A while back (2019 or 2018?) I saw talk of a starship supplement that was in the works. I think it was called‘Danger Zone’. Is that still in the works, or was I imagining that?

Why is the cost for POD saying that it's a color book when it's black and white?

What is the size of the book? The reason I'm asking is I have ordered other POD from others on DTRPG only to find out it is formatted as a 6x9 trade book which makes the print a little too small for my old eyes to read. Thank you in advance for any help with my question.

There seems to be something wrong with the print edition, Most of the art assets have a black area around them that covers adjacent text making it unreadable. Can I get a replacement?

Hey Russell - The standard edition B&W had this error (which is why it's no longer available.)

If you email me at shipping@gallantknightgames.com I can sort this out for you.

On my iPad using PDF Expert, I am able to see bookmark like items in under the Outline section but that option isn't available in other software like Adobe Acrobat. If there was some way to convert the Outline to a Bookmark, I think this would make folks happy.

Swords and Wizardry is a clone of The early versions of Dungeons and Dragons as sold in the box sets of the 1980 and '90s. Swords and Wizardry White Box Edition is a clone of the original White Box set of D&D, which only uses d6s and d20s. White Star takes that rules set and applies it to a sci-fi setting with Star Wars as the main influence.

Is the .pdf the "newest" version of the game? In other words, does it contain all of the corrections that Mr. Spahn made to the physical copy?

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
