A review of ST:RPG from Decipher is on SCIFI.com...

They gave it an A-!

Although they also say that the char. sheet is easily printable... so we do have to wonder about thier judgement!

Hmm, I'm a little concerned by their sub-headline:

Four TV series and 10 movies morph into one solid game that brings alive the Star Trek universe

Ten movies??

Did I miss one somewhere?

They also suggest there have been five companies producing Star Trek RPG's - it might be four if we count this mythical West End Games boardgame!

Actually five if you count the mythical West End Games boardgame.

Nope - to my knowledge GDW never had a Trek rpg, licensed or otherwise, and why would they publish something over here and not in the States? They were a US company.

Edit: Ah, I suspect you're thinking of Games Workshop? No connection to Games Designers Workshop And all they did was reprint the FASA basic game and stick their own logo on it.

And TFG doesn't count as Prime Directive was never a licensed Trek game. At least not until GURPS PD appears later this year, and even then it's status as licensed Trek is hazy at best.
