Fudge Space Opera is rules for running, unsurprisingly, a spacegoing science fiction game under Fudge. Included are chapters on character creation; comabt (personal and vehicular), including how to deal with fragile humans in combat with high energy weaopns; sensors and detection; starship creation and combat; and gadgets. One thing you won't find much of is how to create a space opera background or campaign. For that, I heartily recommend GURPS Space from Steve Jackson Games. What you will find here are the rules which I felt needed customization to get this sort of game to work well with Fudge.
