I haven't gotten to take a look at too much of the Star Hero stuff. How is it? From what I've seen it's a bit TOO toolkitty for me, and the Terran Empire setting doesn't turn my crank.

its toolkitty, but being a major gearhead to begin with, I like it
I dont care that much for the Terran Empire setting either...
and the stock ship designs are a little disapointing

too much reliance on antimatter missiles, no spinal mounts, starship caliber plasma weapons with ranges that are mediocre at best. really munchkiny defensewise too... between armor and shields some of the designs have nigh on 100 defense. also they use variable power pools for sensors and EW among other things... which is something I've never agreed with a bit
