Paul Narcisian's Summary:

I love this game. It is intense, fun, flexible, complex (but well organized), and it makes you think.

Go to the full review for more information.

Perhaps I'm being unfair, but I don't see much of a review here.

Yeah, so I enjoyed the first bit of the review but then it stopped after what I'd consider the introduction.

What is the system? What do the "complex rules" cover? What is the "premise of this story?" I appreciate that you love the game, but "I love the game" isn't a review... Insert a full breakdown of the game content as the third-from-last paragraph and then you'd have something.

As this is your 1st review, I would cut you some slack. But the review is lacking in some essential information.

What type of system is it? It almost sounds a lot like the "Burning Wheel" in regards to pc development. How long does it take to create a pc? Is combat quick, dirty & deadly, or is it a long drawn out affair? How are skills done?

I look forward to another and better review of the game.

Hello all,
I am sure that the reviewer will be along with his insight to the Game System used in StrikeForce, I am actually looking forward to it. Since I wrote StrikeForce I do want everyone to get all the info they can on the game and the Conflict Game System. I have created a short post in Game Design that outlines the Conflict Game System. Should you want the designers views on the system click here . I just did not want to clutter up the review thread with it, this should be about review and your reactions. Looking forward to seeing Paul's comments on the Game System and your reactions.
Thanx
