4.0 out of 5 stars A Wealth of Infomation, March 26, 2000

By 

John (Ferndale, New York) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Star Compendium: Systems of the Verge (Alternity Sci-Fi Roleplaying, Star Drive Setting) (Paperback)

This book covers all the bases that the Stardrive Sourcebook didn't have the room for. It poses new questions and contains dozens of adventure hooks. All of the info is easily incorporated into an existing Stardrive Campaign, and it gives more depth to the Verge. All in all, a good addition to the shelf.

4.0 out of 5 stars A lot of information, April 27, 2000

This review is from: Star Compendium: Systems of the Verge (Alternity Sci-Fi Roleplaying, Star Drive Setting) (Paperback)

There's a lot of information on the systems covered here. The material on Karnath, Eldala and Dewi was the best in my mind. Tychus was also good, as was Vieron. In the end, though, I will probably find the most use out of the sections on Verge relations and the list of travel times and stellar coordinates, especially the latter. The book's almost worth it just for that.

4.0 out of 5 stars This book has it all!, July 7, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Star Compendium: Systems of the Verge (Alternity Sci-Fi Roleplaying, Star Drive Setting) (Paperback)

This book is packed with useful information, and all of it can be incorporated into an existing Star*Drive ease. If you spend a lot of time in the verge, this book is for you. The steep price is because of the slick pages, much like the hardbound books. It's definetly worth it, though!
