As for Savage Worlds we can get you what you need to learn the rules. Savage Worlds is a great system and is really quick and easy to play

I love Firefly so much. I would love to play if the schedule can work in some way.

 Re: Interest Check- Savage Worlds- Firefly/Serenity Game
Well this is very promising  (Limited experience with both systems here) but I think the two are quite similar in terms of design? Savage Worlds is that bit more polished. I know on my second read through the strength and flaw systems seemed practically interchangeable with very little alteration needed. There are also numerous fan supplements for Savage Serenity and Pinnacle themselves have a setting and adventure series with distinctly Firefly-esque themes. There's also the Deadlands setting for more Wild West ideas.

 Re: Savage Worlds- Firefly/Serenity Game (Game Full)
Here's how it is...
After the Earth was used up, we found a new solar system and hundreds of new Earths were terraformed and colonized. The central planets formed the Alliance and decided all the planets had to join under their rule. There was some disagreement on that point.
After the War, many of the Independents who had fought and lost drifted to the edges of the system, far from Alliance control. Out here, people struggled to get by with the most basic technologies; a ship would bring you work, a gun would help you keep it.
A captain's goal was simple: find a crew, find a job, keep flying.
(That's the Shepard Book one.)
