While this response has no real spoiler info in it as such, it does allude to the minor spoiler forrestwolf and others have treated...so the meat of it will be blacked out for the convenience of other fans.......

I will say this, however. I am as excited about the release of a Serenity RPG as I am about the movie itself! The content that has been previewed so far seems terrific...oh I can hardly wait!

The "verse", according to Mal is somewhere in the region of 70 worlds...and the meek havn't inherited one of them (Our Mrs Reynolds). Now, i am no great astronomer...but I sure as heck cant imagine that there are 70+ worlds worth terraforming in a single system. That the ship Serenity trades in a single system(and thus the firefly show and Serenity movie are set in a single system out of several inhabited systems in the Verse) makes a lot of sense, as interstellar distances would probably prove terribly inefficient for a smuggler/merchant of that size and limited cargo capacity. So a single system map is all good...but lets not get 2 carried away. The settled "Verse" is likely to be at least multiple systems (excluding Sol... if that is the system for earth that was).
So, in short...yes to the immediate "setting" being one system...the whole verse is probably bigger..

I have said more on this ..with proofs..in the appropriate forum....
But truly, I hope they dont try to create a single..70 habitable planet packed system...itd just be silly.
