I have run this once for friends and family and once at a con. I plan to run it at another con soon. Well written and fun and the outcome can vary tremendously from group to group. Heavy role play and interpersonal character interaction focus relative to combat, although you can make it a bit heavier in combat if you prefer. Each character has secrets that, if embraced, can make for some lively roleplaying among the players! Possible PvP, too (depending on the players, not required of the scenario), so be wary if your players will or will not like that aspect.

The Resource Dice mechanic is fun, but neither game of mine did it have much impact. Use with caution because it could swing the game drastically if the rolls come up bad, or have no impact if the rolls are good. Keep to yourself the actual table and implement it as you feel works for dramatic tension. Also add more rolls if you feel the tension needs it.

My only complaint is that the ship map is way too big to lay out on a con table, so I made up my own version using Dungeondraft and sci fi assets.

Well written, great layout, excellent execution. I'm especially thankful for the pregens and supplemental files for easy print out before sessions.

Well written module. Great for convention play or a 4-5 hour one-shot. Includes a new mechanic that I plan to implement in other games as well. Resource Rolls. The module is worth it just for that mechanic. The characters have multiple aspects to them as well as 'secrets' to really flesh them out. I've both played in and run this module and had loads of fun in both seats at the table. I plan to run this at online conventions as I can. Cons: The Upper Deck map has grid issues when you try to align the grids for VTT, this is something that would never be noticed in person, but is a difficulty for VTT. A Digital Assets file would be nice for making tokens and other assets. I was able to make and run everything fairly smoothly utilizing Adobe and Token Stamp for use in Foundry with Forge.
