I think that you're doing a great disservice to Star Cluster by saying that it's "one part FATAL" simply because it includes a random roll lifepath option for characters.

Frankly, FATAL isn't known for its random roll lifepath, and that's not what people are going to think of when you tell them that a game is "one part FATAL".

That said, I know you're not that stupid, so I'm guessing there are some personal isuues between you and the Star Cluster folks that colored your review.

Regardless, I found the comparison to be in extremely poor taste, unnecessary, and of questionable value at best (I mean, c'mon - Star Cluster is 1/3 FATAL because it has a random roll lifepath option?).
