2017 HEADLINES: Wesley Snipes and Sean Astin to Develop Adventure Supplement for Sci-Fi RPG.

Two unlikely men are teaming up for an even more unlikely venture for Starfinder, a spacefaring RPG based after Dungeons & Dragons.

Iron GM Games has secured two Hollywood actors—Sean Astin, best known for his role as Samwise Gamgee in Lord of the Rings; and Wesley Snipes, Blade himself—to help write a new setting compatible with the popular tabletop game.

They are set to contribute to Grimmerspace, an upcoming adventure book intended for use with the Starfinder ruleset.

I’m old school when it comes to spacefaring RPG games inspired by D&D: Traveller. Accept no substitutes. (To be fair, it’s also the only spacefaring RPG game I remember playing back in the day. But still.)
