Re: [RPG]: Squadron UK, reviewed by Olivier.Legrand (3/5)
Thanks for reminding me of this little gem!!
I played this once in the late eighties. Loved it but noone else did so never played it again.
Downloaded the free demo, will try to pursuade my group to give it a try. If succesful will definitely be getting the full version.
I remember the things which I thought were so good at the time were the different types of defences; armour class ( or equivalent ), hard and soft force fields, damage dividers, dodge bonus, outright immunity to certain attacks.
Probably all stuff that Champions had done before but to me at the time it was all new.
Now the parts that strike me as really cool are the Personal Status/Detective points rules and especially the DUP approach to character advancement.
Thanks again for the great review and heads up on a forgotten treasure!
