Sounds intressting.. hafto watch how it goes.

It looks pretty good so far.

VERY nice idea!

Only problem is some of the alien miniatures, but most types can be found in various producers I think.

The mechanics and such in Strange Aeons will function nicely, given that group commanders get skills to activate squad members.
But really this could really be an interesting game. It can even have a commercial future if someone really goes for it I think.

Ive added to the forum my first minis painted up, and the start of the Black Dossier... let me know what you think!
