Reception
In the July 1990 edition of Games International (Issue 16), the reviewer was ambivalent about this product, commenting that "diverse elements are thrown together without any thought or respect for their origins." However, the reviewer concluded on a positive note, saying, "it's a thoroughly detailed, varied module that has far more to it than just combat, and which most players should find satisfactory."[2]
