I was 13 when I purchased the original game, and I have nothing but praise for this new edition!

The production values in the physical starter box are excellent. The art is well done and evocative of the original game. The maps are beautiful and on high-quality stock. The encounter cards are detailed and useful.

I'm still making my way through them, but so far the books are very well written and logically presented. I remember the original game having a lot of math during character generation, and that's been replaced with a choice of pre-built character templates (Archetypes in the rules) or a longer "Lifepath" method. Nice and flexible for groups with different needs.

I like the way the game provides suggestions for campaign priorities: will you try to escape Poland and find your way back home? Will you try and establish a safe home somewhere? Or will you keep fighting, linking up with other friendly forces?

Overall I'm very pleased and happy Free League published the new edition!
