Star Frontiers Retro Clone

I'm considering making a <a href="http://www.retroroleplaying.com/content/retro-clones">retro clone</a> of Star Frontiers which combines Alpha Dawn with Knight Hawks into a single book. <div><ul><li>It will be the same character scale, meaning, you won't be able to pilot, repair, astrogate, etc. ships at starting level. </li><li>It will have contain KH board-game.</li><li>Some liberties will be taken to fix a few obvious holes in the AD/KH system, but otherwise it will remain intact.</li><li>I can't copy IP belonging to TSR, so I'll have to make new races (bedsides human) and a new setting. However I can derive races which will be obvious what the original inspiration was. </li><li>Like other clones I imagine a free PDF download lacking artwork will be made available to the public.</li></ul><div><b>Questions to consider:</b></div><div><ol><li>Is there a market for this, who is the consumer (I.E. would <i>YOU </i>buy it, or do you think others will?).</li><li>Since it cannot include the setting we all love, is it worth doing? </li><li>If it is released and does well, then when FrontierSpace comes out will you still consider buying that too? </li><li>Would you consider making adventure, supplements and modules to sell for your own profit (right now you can't make $ based on anything Star Frontiers).</li><li> Would a retro clone help the SF Revival?</li></ol><div>Ideally this is something we could all benefit from, that is, if your like-minded and wouldn't mind making a few extra credits for doing something you 1.) already contribute and/or 2.) have existing material that can be converted into the new setting.</div></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div></div>
