Great setting but super sloppy text and design.
I bought the mega bundle but I quickly discovered that your really, really only need the Rule Book and Setting book (and this one you need just because it has equipment in it).
Might as well buy the Traveller book instead of this bundle, because you are going to need it to clarify things the Hostile rulebook just ignores. Like the draft mechanic. What happens if you don't qualify for your first career? Just doesn't say.
Some skills are kind of the same as well. Like Comms, Computers and Electronics. Ground Vehicle, Vehicle, Watercraft. Aircraft and Pilot. They could be compressed into one skill instead of two or three.
The "illustrations" are crappy 3D-renderings or pictures with a photoshop filter on-top.
Text is repeating the same words over and over. I quote the description of the Investigation Skill: "Scientific analysis and the use of complex and accurate scientific tools and equipment to gather clues at a crime scene or scientific location."
It's so bad it might be a joke.
