Hey, the components are mediocre; the rulebook is atrocious, yet I still found myself enjoying this science fiction game. It's one in which the theme comes to life, offers a player a lot of tactical options during battle, and the type of game which encourages stories long after the box has been put back on the shelf. Those who seek spaceship combat and want the theme to be immersive should certainly give this game a look! See my review for more details...
