Catalyst Ready To Take You Where No Man Has Gone Before

BoW Sam's Log: Star Date: Friday Afternoon. Receive reports of new Sci-Fi RPG from Catalyst Game Lab. Entitled Cosmic Patrol!
This game will be good news for all you fans of classic sci-fi as it is based upon the concepts and images of sci-fi from around the 60's and 70's. You know, when the hero looked like this.
Ah those were the days when men were real men, women were real women and small green furry things from Alpha Centauri were real small green furry things from Alpha Centauri.
The game takes place in retro future setting. You take the role of a patrolman, humanity's last line of defence, tasked with exploring, discovery and defending man kind from alien threats such as these boys.
So what are you waiting for guys? Grab your ray guns and get prepared to boldly go. Knowing me any game I play will quickly end up as Galaxy Quest rather than some great space epic. A website and a facebook page have been set up so you can keep track of how the game evolves.
Now, all that's left for me to say is beam me up Andy!

Nice alien with the phallus like trunk.
I’d certainly be afraid if he came to probe humanity!
+10 virtual karma points to Sam for the Douglas Adams quote!
YES! Someone spotted it!

And as if my Magic @chibi virtual karma turns into real karma 😉
BTW I really enjoyed your writing on this.
Sounds really interesting, classic Scifi is great, not to mention usually more than flexible enough to be used for Scifi horror and other flavours of the genre too.
Makes me think of Rattrap Productions Fantastic Worlds skirmish game in that respect, but of course full on RPG rather than Narrative Skirmish.
Nice to see stuff like this. I love 50’s Sci-fi B movies…
…now I fancy a pan galactic gargle blaster…with a pink umbrella 😉
