The Libertarian Gamers Project is having a lively conversation about using the Star Wars campaign setting to run just about any type of game imaginable, from space opera to noir detective stories to medical dramas. I posed a counter argument that just because you could run a medical drama story in Star Wars doesn't mean that you should.
The idea that kicked off the hold discussion was Jay Hailey's proposal for an Age of Alderaan in which modern day adventurers find themselves in a galaxy far, far away.
Finally, we're also discussing the potential of using Marvel's Civil War as campaign fodder, which led to discussion of the similarly themed Brave New World superhero RPG by Matt Forbeck which was put out by AEG in the late 1990s.
