Has anyone had any experience playing Eclipse Phase yet? I got the book for Christmas and have been reading over it; it seems really cool.

Yes.

The system itself is robust enough to create a Bolo universe on the fly without breaking down on a mechancial level. The campaign was a one night run with one Bolo tank, one pilot, and an aerial AI satelite. The game went smoothly.

Overall, the high points were...

- The Bolo was powerful without being gamebreaking. Anytime you can fit a Hellbore weapon into a game alongside the human pilot without breaking the campaign, you are playing with a stable system.

- Speed was not an issue. The game moved fast. I was happy as a GM. The leg work to maintain a moving campaign was easy to maintain.

- Character development! Woot... The process and gameplay supported evolved character concepts at the end of the day for high RP games. Happy thoughts all around as a GM...
