I ran a demo of this last weekend at a monthly game gathering. Turnout was low because of the holiday weekend and a larger competing convention, but I had numerous inquiries about the game. Many people appear to be interested and those who played or watched enjoyed the game.
There was a rules question, which I have posted on the appropriate board.
I'm itching for the Commander's Manual to become official so I can start including the rules from it in official demos. HML Courser's turret will be devastating and the ships capable of bracketing fire will be much more effective. I kept having to tell people that their question was covered in other rules.
