I'm not interested in purchasing these, as I already own most of them, but I wanted to throw out that I really liked my time with Tomorrow's War. It can get complicated, but the games Pat and I played with this ruleset might be my favorite game memories.

Someone should jump at this. It's a really neat book.

Thanks Josh,
It's a neat ruleset with great production values and based on the proven mechanics from "Force on Force". Definitely a hard sci-fi game acknowledging that actual near future and Sci-Fi combat would likely have more in common with the war in Afghanistan than LoTR. I'm at peace with being a pulp sci-fantasy guy though, so hopefully someone will enjoy this book.
