It's increadably awsome if you like very streamlined, full featured,
easy and fun to play rules for RPG and tactical hex (and mini) based
games involving big aniome-style robots in a sci-fi environment. The
source books are very richly detailed with info for both RPGers and
tactical gamers. And the minis are very high quality.
I give it five stars without hesitation (and I don't give five stars
lightly, Dirtside II and Stargrunt II get five stars from me, but I
think that's about it -- I've never played Full Thrust)
In other words... GET IT!
My 2 cents,
Greg
