I really like the Wretched Hives-book, I've had some good ideas come out of the locations there. Also, I really like that they use locations that are used in other supplements, for instance there is a nightclub on the planet Adarlon - which is mentioned in the campaign-section of Tramp Freighters.
These days I don't have time to do as much prepwork as I used to, so to have a couple of nicely fleshed out locations is great. |

| Oh, I forgot about Cracken's Rebel Field Guide! That was a big hook for me. LOVE the schematic art in that one, plus Cracken's running commentary. |

I continue to use "TLA" and "ETLA" on a frequent basis at work, especially with IT folk. "This SOW has too many TLAs in it." |

A minor victory: I was able to get a boxed DarkStryder Campaign set on Ebay for under $30 in very good shape.
The caveat was that it was missing three of the stat cards. That irks me a bit but to be honest, I probably was missing a few of those cards before my first set went missing about 15 years ago. |

I think I got mine for a little cheaper than that missing the box and maps.
