Arms & Equipment Guide

Review:
This very fun and interesting book suffers from one major flaw: there are not enough weapons. There to many text, pictures and other pieces of gear in a 96 page book to leave space for lots of weapons, another should have been released separately for these. But don't be fooled by a quick look in the book, a lot of the weapons may seem to be directly taken from the player handbook, but instead these are new or different models and variants of these weapons which is very realistic. For example the Charge Riffle detailed in this book is the IF3 Charge Riffle, a slightly different model from the one in the player handbook, and has it's own history: its a classic model and also the standard weapon of all Concord marines. This book is very tailored to the Star*Drive setting.

Review:
I have to agree with Bleakcabal, so I don't have much to say. Other useful things include survival gear and clothing (especially for you alien types). We all know that in Star*Drive, clothing cost the same thing as in real life. But then, a question arouses: what does clothing cost in real life. I don't know about you, but I don't buy buisiness suits everyday.
