Here's some trivia : GURPS was the first commercially successful translation of a RPG into Portuguese. As a result, it's the second or third most popular gaming system in Brazil.

My idea was to use D20 for a Space Empires RPG because it would be easier on the beginners (plus I'm much more familiar with it).

Definitely go with the D20, if for no other reason to cut off Steve Jackson. He is a serious bastard, sueing people at the drop of a hat and then ripping off everyone else

I am a fan of the HERO system, and if you've played it GURPS is obviously a ripoff of it, albiet simplified for the less mathematically inclined.

Go D20!
