Could not recommend this more highly. If you're a mecha fan, buy this game.
This is really an excellent system. Strikes the perfect balance between crunchy, detailed rules and light narrative gameplay. The combat is great fun; it's a great tactical experience while still managing to flow very fast, keeping the action going with minimal page flipping and math. Unless you REALLY like complicated, simulationist gameplay, this is probably the mecha system for you.
Character and mecha design is a breeze, and makes GMing require much less prep time than you'd be used to from other systems.
The art and graphic design elements are somewhat lacking, but for a 3000 dollar Kickstarter project, it's perfectly adequate, especially considering that money is also funding an upcoming expansion.
