im a huge sst fan! have like every thing . i didn't really like the slow down . but i havent jumped ship . its kinda hard when you own three plasma bugs! hehe. not getting the drop ship for christmas crushed my heart . any way its a great game . i have some problems with too many reactions which sst evo has fixed! lets wait and see. at 43 is awesome . definately a large scale game . the new down loadable rules are great simple with enough tactical meat to sink your teeth into . alternateing activations . orders , command options and the universial table to figure out dice roles thumbs up . the figs are great too. i know all about all those complainers . but the figs are great scuplts . so its a toss up . butt untillsst is rebourn successfull ive been all about at43. love the figs, art , fluff , and rules . if anyone knows me or has seen my pics on the forum i have done a lot with sst . but the slow down kind of got to me..
