Review:
I was disappointed by OutBound. The book made many promises it did not keep. It could have been so much more. The book is divided in two sections, systems and adventure hooks and rules and misc. The systems and hooks are ok but could use so fleshing out. In the other half few new rules are introduced and most of the Scout equipment section is just ideas on why scouts could use or not these items, and other such space fillers. There are new careers but nothing out of the ordinary. Frankly I do not need the author to tell me that a stun baton is excellent is a scout wants to stun opponents or that a biowatch could be useful.
