As you can see by leafing through this book, itis quite different from its predecessor, Space Master Companion I™ While that book focused primarily on new character creation options, professions and skils, this book focuses on new telepathy techniques, equipment, and science. ‘Abook of new equipment isan easy thing fora GM to deal with. Each separate weapon or device can be allowed or discarded by the GM, a his whim. They are also easily altered to fit into various campaigns or power levels. if something seems unbalancing, the GM can make it very expensive, legal to possess, or it can be disallowed altogether. The entirely new psychic system, Psifr, will enchance any game, and make telepathy a totally unique ability.

As a result, the material in SpaMCo 1! draws heavily on the series of IMCS, as well as the core RM rules. When articular section of this product. references to an AMC installment or an RM book (lke Spell Law or Arms Law), what are you supposed to do; particularly when you do not own the product in question? Wellst of all, do not panic! We have found that most SM players know a lot about AM, because they got into that system first. But, if you are one of the few who play Sifto the exclusion of RM, ust ignore those sections that reference’ AM products. This is an optional rules Ccompliation afte all. Think of the Al-refer- enced rules as more optional than the oth- ers—you do not need them. If you think this, is a cheap cop-out and that all relevant and previously published AMC material dhave been included inthis product, imagine all of the otherrmation we would have had to axe~ ut ofthis product. It wouldhave been quite abit, and many consumers would have been upset about buying rehased material ‘Sodonot getmadthinking youare forced to-go out and buy some other books just to.

NOTE: For readability purposes, these rules use the standard masculine pro- ‘nouns when referring to persons of uncertain gender. Insuchcases, these pronouns are intended to convey the ‘meanings he/she, her/him, etc.
