though the cyborg stuff is slightly further than I'd go for "NO FUNNY BUSINESS" i guess we do keep hearing about Combat Dolphins, so. the presentation here is really nice and clean and I quite like the straightforward restatement of character building and rolls-- those might usurp some of the F:UE docs I put on the table for players. it leads into the mission proper nicely, too. this makes for a really great option as a first FIST experience on both sides of the referee screen, "ask the players" is so useful. it also has me wondering about a gm-less mission deck system, but that's an aside. simple and sweet, i like this a lot!

(ps double check the spellings of those mission titles on your recs page... i believe it's "ataraxia" and "the ouagadougou job"!)

Thanks for the detailed review! I would love to see a GM-less mission deck system if you make one - or a sort of "handler's oracle?! Good catch - I've updated those spellings.

A really well put together learning mission; I wish I had this when I first started running FIST!

I REALLY like how clean the learning pages are in this mission. I wouldn't ever think to make a mission meant to learn the FIST system but this does it super well. The dice icons and diagrams are just so nice to look at and super clear. Also, always love when Libra Sun is involved. Great work!

LOVE a good teaching mission, and our girl LIBRA SUN. The off-white style is so clean and the two-page setup really helps. The inclusion of other starter missions feels like the perfect Segway into more games!

oh man - so clean and neat!!! understated and flashy at the same time. A great tutorial and first mission, giving FIST access to Libra Sun for future missions - a very smart choice. Good job suggesting complications for first-time refs as well!

Developer

Thanks! We're glad you like it!
