Advanced Fighting Fantasy Quickstart
Publisher: Arion Games
by Mark [Verified Purchaser]

In some ways these Quickstart rules do not do the full rules credit. The pre-generated characters you are provided with have notably fewer Special Skills and one of the greatest strengths of 2nd edition Advanced Fighting Fantasy is that you can very quickly create heroes as capable as those in films and books and not have the problem of not being able to have enough skills, like in many RPGs.

On the other hand, if the pre-generated characters had actually been created using the actual 2nd edition Advanced Fighting Fantasy rules, which they definitely have not been, it would have been very easy to work out the character creation.

In one of the other reviews of these Quickstart rules the system has been criticised for the combat system not featuring any options other than just making the same dice rolls. Fortunately the full rules do include various combat options, which are absent here.

Well it has rules for running cat people and ones brighter than the cat people in Out of the Pit so that has to be a good thing.

Stellar Adventures Weapons and Armour Catalogue
Publisher: Arion Games
by Andrew D. [Verified Purchaser]

A wonderful selection of weapons and armour, some which are bargains over their standard rule book equivlaent, while others are the expected over-priced brandnames.

The sales pitches for each equipment entry are great fun.

In addition to the variants on weapons by different manifacturers, there are also a few weapon types entirely absent from the Stellar Adventures main rule book.

Stellar Adventures
Publisher: Arion Games
by Andrew D. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 06/10/2023 10:31:13

I think my one big complaint about Stellar Adventures is that there should of been a version of it back in the early 1990s alongside the original Advanced Fighting Fantasy. It would have made a significant difference to me. Back then first edition Advanced Fighting Fantasy and Dungeons & Dragons were the only RPG systems I were familiar with. Stellar Adventures benefits from a fast and simple character creation system, which allows you to create proper heroes with a reasonable number of skills. The combat system is heroic with in its way reasonable cinematic realism.

Into the Star

I have enjoyed playing this twice so far. Just wish it had been longer. The bite size shortness might actually be a selling point for some people. I would have happily forked out for a print on demand copy of this adventure.

I also enjoyed playing this adventure considerably more than the other Traveller solo adventure I found on Drive Thru, and unlike that one, this one is free!
