Title: Strange Aeons 2nd edition review and comparison
Post by: Anatoli on 12 October 2016, 10:53:29 AM

I received my 2nd edition rulebook from F-side games earlier this week and have been browsing and comparing both edition. The 2nd edition is a very nice product packed with content and value for money, compiling almost all the core and expansions of 1st edition into a single tome, with some good tweaks while mostly remaining unchanged in terms of basic rules and gameplay.

Since the rules are largely the same I provided a link to my original 2010 review of 1st edition inside my review of the 2nd edition rulebook, which mainly focuses on the quality of the book and the content of 2nd edition.

Spot on!

2nd edition also features a subtle tweak or two that improve on the already excellent combat mechanics if I recall correctly.
