So, reading my Interceptor rules book. As I get older the dry details of rulebooks become less interesting and where in my youth I would breathlessly devour the technical rules for hours, and look for the tactical implications as well as how to use them to beat the enemy...now I find them dull and dry. That's OK. Interceptor rules are decently written aside from some typos, and have a little humor thrown in here and there. The booklet includes potted version of the Universe backstory, an introduction to the main conflict and actors.
When I was about 7 years old I got some birthday money, I wanted a Millenium Falcon toy, the small metal one, but it was sold out at the PX, and more than I had anyway- no Star Wars ships in my price range...instead I brought home whatever this was...I liked it. I was stolen at show and tell though.
