(The players will then fast learn to get cover)b) Give, besides the standard equipment, a trauma symbionte to everyone (this spellware is described in a short essay on the Fantasy Flight Games Site)Our master was not an experienced D&D master, only a player, so he probably didn`t know how to use the appropriate challenge rating, but at least in our first adventure no one died (or was near death).Though it is D&D in Space, it is not D&D in Space - some tactics should better be changed. Spellcasters shouldn`t feel tempted to throw a fireball, if every soldier can throw a grenade for 6d6 points of damage. It is better to cast a Protection from Elements (Fire) against those laser rifles and so on.The background is not deep enough involved to figure out if it is a "D&D cyberpunk in space", but I doubt so...</blockquote>
