Converted from Phorums BB System


Hi Creel:

Kester's problem with the rules is entirely with the character generation. As he says, "The system is simple and relatively straightforward." I should note that other reviewers have had no such problem with chargen - with Blood Games or any other game using the StarCluster system - nor have we recieved any complaints from our customers on this issue. I think therefore the problem may be limited to Kester and some others like him, and will most likely be solved by our generating a sample character as a guide.

Kester is an extremely intelligent fellow, and I'm not suggesting he's too dim to catch on. I'm saying that different people need different kinds of explanation, and our failure was to not accompany our instructions with a sample character, to show how the instructions work in practice. It's a good idea, and will be implemented in the next version, which will be our standard free upgrade to existing customers.

The chargen procedure for all StarCluster 2 games is very similar, and you can download StarCluster Light for free from RPGnow:

Read and judge for yourself.
