I can just feel the snicker he is making. Do not turn your back on this one for sure. :-)
Great little miniature.

It is great to have the Warrior added to the line up. Now we can do all eight of the core rules classes. Nice work Alexey. :-)

Overall I found myself underwhelmed. Sorry but that is why I gave an average number of stars.

I felt he handled the subject well. Started with some open and honest conversation on the ethics and potential issues with a culture that grows their own slaves. What it could mean for the culture at large.
Well written, in my opinion.

I have really enjoyed reading these various entries. Not just for their content, but for the help in generating creative moments for my games. I strongly recommend this book for anyone GMing their own games. :-)

I found this to be a great version of the game. I liked Zozer's approach to the various rules. Simple enough to allow easy teaching and play, but enough meat to allow one to build a setting if desired.

I picked this up with the idea I would blend some items into my game. I have always thought some cybernetics could and should be part of any scifi world, Cepheus/Traveller included. But as I read the book I found myself finding more and more I would like to blend in. The author put some real effort to make the items feel balanced in the core world. Yes some would be powerful, but then so would real cybernetics in a real world. With a small amount of effort, as suggested by the author, the person running the game could keep the cybernetics from overpowering the world and rather, remain as tools to enhance the overall experiance.
I would recomend this product to anyone who wants to sprinkle in some cybernetics into their game like a spice not turn thier game into a Cyberpunk world. Enjoy the far future that is the Cepheus/Traveller game.

Very cleaver and yet simple and clean. Love how you gave ait a "memory" of the previous action. This is a tool That will get used for sure.
I did add some funds in, I say to anyone who is getting this, give the creater something. It is worth it.
Now I just need to figure out what in game effect these different weather elements may have, if any beyond setting.
Thank You :-)

I have picked up all of the STLs so far from this line. While I get some folks may find them too "cute" to use, I like them. Sort of adding another layer of 'not my real world' to the games. They can be scaled to fit the size you wish. I elected to leave mine unpainted for now. I may do a black wash but for now I am using them more like a pawn or meeple than some well defined character.
I like these little guys and would encourage you to pick them up as well.

He is what he was meant to be, a cute supply hauler. :-)
I would love to see a variant of this figure with him holding a lantern.
If you like these, pay Alexey something and get the STL.

I love these little figures, I look forward to more being created. :-)
Well worth the price and in my opinion, worth more than the base suggested price.

I have always loved the idea of Western based stories thanks to my father. From reading my father's collection of Louis L'amour and Zane Grey to watching the different movies with my father. So it should not come as a shock that I also held a special place in my RPG collection for various Western Themed RPGs. The Rider RPG based on the Cepheus Engine rule set being one of them.
So you can imagine I was very excited to pick up this new support product, "New Liberty". The product offers a fully fleshed out western era town with NPCs and various plot hooks and ideas. Wonderfully done with great art including key NPC portraits and factions to help give the town a fully alive feel. But in my opinion that is not the best part of this product.
They included a full history of the town from pre-establishment through the time of the SciFi era of the core Cepheus Engine products. They went on to offer some insight into how to use this product as a western town or a scifi small colony or back water world location. So whether you are playing a band of gunslingers from the 1800's or a crew of a starship in Fireflyesque style or a full on SciFi crew in their shinny spaceship just visiting a back water world, New Liberty can fit in and offer the game master a great setting with lots of creative and living NPCs.
I strongly recommend this product for those who might want to have a group of players use the town as a base or center point to a campaign. IT si well worth the cost.

Cepheus Atom presents a post-apocalyptic world using Stellagama's Quantum ruleset. It is a rules lite set of rules but is capable of some wonderful game play by allowing the players and GM to expand and adjust as the moment requires.
With little effort, Cepheus Engine materials could be used in this, but there are some mechanics that are different, simpler, and in my opinion quite creative.
If you are seeking a nice, rules lite, alternative to play a wasteland mutant filled game, give this a read through. You may find it is exactly the tool you need. :-)

I picked this up on a recomendation from a friend. I really liked the core mechanics and the setting felt true to the source material. While I found some elements slightly odd (how fast everyone turns into a useless ball of comotose nothing) overall I found th egame fun to play and worth people's efforts to try it out.
