Joe McCullough’s Stargrave keeps growing, and Death Vector heralds the arrival of a new expanse to explore: the Outlaw Technology Sector (OTS). This abandoned part of space offers rich rewards, but it also hides terrible dangers. The game’s trademark dose of sci-...
We first looked at Fallout: Factions in Wi437, when it was launched as the Battle for Nuka-World Starter Set. We were impressed by its high production quality and fine plastic miniatures, and felt it was an excellent all-in-one introduction to the rules.
