I'm still not sure how to build a starship in it. If PDFs were more convenient I might be able to use my copy of 5.10, but for me electronic documents are better suited to shorter subjects.<br /><br />That said, there are things I like about it, such as the expanded info on Tech Levels, the idea of QREBS. Um. Probably some other things I'm not thinking of right now. But I don't see any real reason to give up CT, MT, or GT. For that matter, TNE has the advantage of sharing a system with <i>Dark Conspiracy</i>* and <i>Twilight 2000 V.2.2</i>. I can incorporate the parts of T5 that I like into those pretty easily.<br /><br />*Or, rather, it is easy to use the TNE/V.2.2 system with DC, since all of the equiment, character, and other stats are identical, just processed through the system slightly differently.faoladhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03691952430041394614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7913319789564397699.post-42689160758558529142022-05-24T14:59:00.357-05:002022-05-24T14:59:00.357-05:00I've really enjoyed these reviewsI've really enjoyed these reviewsFenOrchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05427867377723747179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7913319789564397699.post-2332215643910968322022-05-24T13:32:28.155-05:002022-05-24T13:32:28.155-05:00This was physically printed at some point, right? ...This was physically printed at some point, right? I seem to recall flipping through it at the local store and putting it back on the shelf.<br /><br />Congrats on the 5000th post. That's a lot - I think adding all three of my somewhat dusty blogs together would reach a fifth of that.Dick McGeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14521293874696659063noreply@blogger.com
