Stargate SG-1 First Impressions

You can get more action dice over the course of the session; the Gamemaster can award them to players for heroic or cinematic actions.

Exactly. The rules provided in fact encourage the Gamemaster awarding action dice, as that is the only way he can regen his own.

In my opinion the system gives the player and GM more control over the leathality of the system, as opposed to leaving it to total chance. Granted, confirming a crit in normal d20 is not normally too difficult, but the effects in Spycraft are alot more seveare in most cases.

And how often do you normally roll a critical hit in most d20 sessions anyways?

If you do not like how the system is modeled, feel free to use a different system. I like it and will be sticking with the WP/VP system

For those wondering, I will likely finish my review of the book next week. I have not looked at it too much this week due to real life concerns (I am being laid off and my little sister is moving away this week).

Anyone know where I can buy this book for less than list?

The ISBN is messed up on the book (I think it is supposed to be 1-887953-95-5 but instead it is listed as 1-887953-95-7) and this has caused places like Amazon.com and Walmart.com and Barnesandnoble.com to not list the book as available (or existing) at all.

DOorDICE.com has it for $37.50, and good shipping rates for multiple copies. That's the best I have found so far.
