This game does exactly what it aims to do. It is a system light game that makes for a great one shot to short campaign. It is the perfect game to play when taking a break from your main campaign. That said if you want to run this game for longer your going to want to find another game. There is no way to improve your character over time.

I am going to give it a five because this is not only a sound OSR system, but the closest thing to India mythology I will ever get to in table top. Seriously this is the best one on the market that I know of. RPGPundit had taken great care with his work and it shows. It isn't your typical OSR game, but that is because it wants to do the setting right.

For a beta this book certainly offers more than what a finish books can offer. I was not expect much out of this beta, but I am glad to say I am proven wrong. This is a whole book. Though what really carries it is the fact that this beta is not afraid to show its teeth with the regimental rules. I spent a couple of hours just making up regiments for fun.

If you love the 40k setting, want a low level game, and don't want to use dated rules from other 40k rpg books then only war will work for you. Plus you can leave suggestions in the forums in the Fantasy Flight site that can help shape the game. What more can you want from a beta?
