Ok, I don't know if anyone else has covered this and I apologize if I am covering well-trod ground. First, I've opened and have seriously started examining the book.

It's stunning in its perfect binding especially for its size. Second, I'm seriously tempted to run a space campaign based on the system. Is Star Siege similar?

Anyway, this is probably the best example of Troll Lord superior physical and written work on a classic game. If it wasn't big enough to choke a hippopotamus, it would be a perfect advertisement for troll Lord's quality.

You are right, this is a big fat beautiful chunk of book! It's something I wanted to see since the 80's when I got the og Metamorphosis Alpha rpg. Is Starseige similar...no. I am sure you could use SS:EH or Amazing Aventures but you would have to stat up the mutations.

The players first look at the inside of the Warden will be as C&C characters. So those will be made. I'm thinking AA with the powers book is a good fit.
