About all I remember from watching was the Synchro-Vox animation. Pure static face with weird red lips moving to the words. Sometimes the 'cut out' was very visible, sometimes almost not. My experience was a bit like a horror show; could not pull my eyes away.
I have almost NO memory of any adventures. No memory of an antagonist neo-Romans.
As for space combat, I'm a vacchead, but will refrain from my usual blither about the adaptability of Full Thrust.
I'll just mention Hydra Miniatures. Their War Rocket is closed to only their designs, with tweeks, as far as I can tell, but pulp/retro is well covered there for spaceships of Buck Rogers meeting Ming's meeting Zsa Zsa Gabor's Cytherians meeting This Island Earth's. The skirmish Retro Raygun does the same for small groups of groppos. Both are supported by figs.
