If $150 price tag doesn't scare you, and the theme interests you, get this game. It's great. Hard yes, but great.

Best Solo Game I've ever played. Each Combat match is it own little puzzle against what you know the AI will do, with some luck mitigation. Creates an excellent narrative. Very tactile with mats and chips.
