I've started collecting a Dindrenzi fleet and a Directorate fleet, so does Andy [shut up hippie] and Shane [Starlynx] is thinking of getting into it. While I've yet to play a game, I have read the rules, and find that generally it plays similarly to ACTA . . . aside from damage and crits . . . . though at first glance I think i might like this system.
I agree with Digger; fighters, bombers, interceptors and assaulters just come across as being a total pain in the arse to me.
