You know, there's no reason that you can't use StarGrunt II for fantasy
battles as is; just scale the top-end weapon systems down from heavy
sniper lasers and convert it to a heavy longbow.

The only big hole would be magic systems, but there are so many kinds of
magic people like (see Raven and WH) that its almost /better/ to only
have a very minor sketch of magic and leave it to players to flesh it
out.
