Bought two PDFs (prefer hard copy but PDF fine for exploring new rules.) One is Rogue Stars. Some appeal with reservations but looking for first impressions from others. Thinking of several themes – Hive Mind Amphibious Insectoid Star Cops first. Next Psionic Reptilian Gestalt Star Cops. Last Humanoid Star Cops (see the overarching 👮 theme) with either opportunity fire or sharpshooter discipline. What was your first thoughts about building a force thematically? |

I looked it over, but concluded character generation was too fussy unless I was running a campaign or I was trying to duplicate some particular existing group. But well before I built three "star cops"-themed groups, I'd want a few groups of law-breakers. The last time I remember cops on both sides, it was a pair from the Chicago Police department shooting it out over whose turn it was to drive. I don't remember that one as a Rogue Stars scenario. |

I would want one of my War game buddies to field the opposition. |

Sounds interesting. Any reviews of them yet, on-line? |

I just received my nickstarter for this game…read through the rules…after the holidays were gonna try a few games. I love the miniatures though. |

Is there a QRS and such yet? |

No QRS yet but it has been promised shorty. I believe the character generation to be intentionally detailed for this level of skirmish/RPGlite game. One of the things that draws me to it personally. Not played yet but like what I've read. But of a buzz at my club. |

Ok bit the bullet, Kindle ver was on sale. Really like these rules, and the author has been great answering questions and why things were done the way they were. Some errata, but not really bad, seen worse. link Has some notes and lots of questions answered and talked about. Looking at doing it in 15mm scale, as I have so many great minis already. |
