I really liked this, even though it was an updated version of "Battle Beyond the Stars". Of course, not many these days have ever heard of, let alone see, that movie. And it was and is one of my all time favorites.
I tend to like Zacks stuff but if he wanted to do a remake he could have asked me to float him something more original. I did love seeing a Drider, though. Well done!
Also, having a glowing red sword doesn't annotate a reference to Star Wars. It's just a heated up piece of metal that cuts well. There are other Role-playing games with this weapon type. Right Zack?
Overall, it's a hit in my book and I eagerly await part 2.
