Name Change -- Suggestions Wanted

Formerly the play-by-post forum for my TSGS Space Force game, now the private forum for development of the new Space Force Science Fiction RPG game. I've retained the entirety of the original game threads here, to be mined for possible content. See the introductory post for more information.

Name Change -- Suggestions Wanted

Post by Solomoriah »

So it's looking like I might actually publish this game. But that leads to a problem... thanks to the combined efforts of Donald J. Trump and Steve Carell, I'm concerned that I might get a trademark challenge. Or in other words, I need a new name.

Ideally I'd like the name to be the same as the name the fictional TV show would have had. And of course, it should try hard not to be the same as any real-world show.

Gah. This is why I've never changed the name.

Ack. If it was a "generic" sci-fi game I'd go with something like that. But it doesn't fit the included campaign.

If you want to make it sound a bit retro, how about Aerospace Force or Aerospace Corps?
