Westerns as a SF adventure Inspiration

I've watched a lot of Wayne movies but never Stagecoach with John Wayne.<div><br /></div><div>Liking it so far. Wayne as the Ringo Kid (PC)  is being transported by stagecoach wulith a menagerie of characters ( NPCs) to face a trial. But army escort leaves them on orders and they brave Apache territory. Wife of army Captain gives birth along way and of course Apaches raid. </div><div><br /></div><div>SF adventure: PCs start as convicted criminals being transported for trial on a Star liner with 1 Star Law marshal. But ship misjumps. Bad stuff happens and PCs needed to help. </div><div><br /></div><div>Pirates, sathar, or zuraqor</div><div><br /></div><div>Suggest your own Western.</div>
