Not sure it would be for me but I've seen a tournament that will be using it.

Haven't played using the rules, but it looks much better than stuff like 9th ed. It doesn't re-write the game. Let us know how the tournament went (if youre going yourself ;).
cheers, Lee

I'm on their facebookgroup. Like it more than 9th.

From what I've read of it I like the minimalist approach. Though the things it changes are of debateable value IMHO. Disruption breaking Steadfast makes sense on one level but stuff being too Steadfast is no longer the issue it was in early 8th.

Plymouth, so too far for me sadly. I'd imagine it's worth a look for anyone from Bristol or further west though.
