I made the attached file as a checklist of books needed to capture what I consider to be the essential elements for a space opera campaign in different RPG systems. I do not own all the books listed, so if anyone reading this sees any errors post the suggested correction here. Attachments:RPGSpaceSciFiBooks.pdf (186.34 KB)

That is quite an extensive analysis Joe. Nice work.

Not quite a correction but Starblazer Adventures is no longer available. But in the Fate system, Mindjammer is a worthy successor...

A few others you can add or check out since it seems you have a interest in the genre Fading Suns has a pretty extensive book list, here's a Wiki link also linkAnd then there was AlternityBoth are settings I've always wanted to get acquainted with.

I made a number of updates to the original attachment, including the addition of Fading Suns. I did not add Alternity, because I cannot find a legal way for a person to get the books other than a rare second hand copy. This is too bad, because Alternity may have a lot to offer. I did a strike-through on Starblazers Adventures, because it is also not available. However, I learned that after I put it on the list.
