A few of us in the group have been excited about the game since we've first heard about it, and since Thomas and Adrian could both make the session, we decided we would play it instead of a miniatures wargame.
On the whole it is what it sold itself as: Talisman in the 40K universe. There is probably more book-keeping involved, and some of the encounters were quite over-powered in the early stage of the game, but the basic idea of going around the board in circles and upgrading yourself until you think you are powerful enough for the next level and finally the inner circle is still there.
It's one of those games that is good to have around and I can certainly see us playing it again.
I hope you will consider posting a review, along with a game session that highlights the mechanics. I always find those sort of reports interesting.
