Like the others this is a great "choose (or really roll) your own adventure" type scenario, with appropriate results based on your fate dice rolls, aspects compelled through the story, and usefulness of envoking your aspects and stunts to achieve success. Having now played through all of Leo Winsteads FAE Solo Adventures, I have to say this one was probably my favorite. I was at first a litte aprehensive about the setting as steam punk and it's derivatives are just generally not by thing but ultimately the playthrough was really great.
Maybe I just had the lukiest session with Air Brigade, but ths scenario I felt like had the best flow of losing and winning rolls resulting interesting results but still allowing the story to carry on. Without the suddent taken out stuations I kept finding myself in in Tulikak or the "I only rolled the dice twice, nothing intersting happened, and suddenly the story ended with aliens getting off my ship and flying away while my character pondered how wise they were" thing I experience with Cryonaut, I felt like Air Brigade really offers better potential development of the story.
