AlphaVerse II is 50+ pages of awesome. Mr Libby does a great job of introducing the setting with a bit of history, the groups involved and then the characters available. AVII focuses more on the combat & action side and makes a good framework for using miniatures. I love this because I am not a huge RPG fan but I do like my miniature skirmish characters to have some dept and not juts a stat line.
Another fun part of this game is that there aren't really any good guys. Bad is good!! You've can play as a kill-crazy Black-Ops merc, a hunted Mutant, an under-dog Marine Commando or mutant hunter waring power armor to name a few things.
Likes: Page Count is low and formatted for 8.5 x 5 paper (2 pages on 1 sheet), the story line is totally cool because it takes place around New England (I'm from Maine), most of the rules can be used for miniature table top skirmishes.
Disliked: Where's Issue #5??I NEED MOAR!!! :)
Satisfied: 100%
