Converting Player Character Abilities:

I love Mutants, I love Space Aliens and I like mixing things up.

So first basic abilities:

                              Star Frontiers     Mutant Future     FrontierSpace
Feeble                    30                         3                         35                
Poor                       35                         4-5                      40
Below Average      40                         6-8                      45
Average                 45                         9-12                     50
Above Average      50                        13-15                   55
Good                      55                        16-17                   60
Remarkable            60                         18                       65
Incredible               65                         19                       70 
                               70                         20                        75
                               75                         21                        80

When converting Star Frontiers player characters to FrontierSpace add +5 to all abilities except STA. As FrontierSpace uses a different method to determine it's Body Points.
If converting the opposite direction -5 from all abilities except BP. 

To convert STA to BP:

SRT/2 = BP

Therefore if converting Star Frontiers after adding your +5 to STR/2 to get Body Points and round up. To go the other direction -5 from STR and that result becomes the STA score. 

But what about racial differences between the games? You could not worry about it or you could make the appropriate adjustments for example:

In Star Frontiers Humans get a +5 to one ability, while in FrontierSpace it is +5 to one, and -5 to another, thus if you convert from Star Frontiers to FrontierSpace you would need to -5 from one ability as the pre-existing StarFrontiers character has already received a +5 at it's creation.

In addition there is a great article in Issue 23 of Frontier Explorer for playing the Star Frontier setting using FrontierSpace. http://frontierexplorer.org/book/frontier-explorer-issue-23


Happy Gaming!
