I finally finished my game over a few sessions. Overall it went well and I succeeded in my mission! I'm not sure if I'll continue the character, but did wonder if you recommend simply rolling up another mission that's connected to the first or just organically growing it. My mission was rescuing a downed pilot with intel, so that intel would seem to provide the next mission if I can get it fleshed out a bit.
Ah yes, I remember that for advancement. I must admit that I somewhat cheated in my game with using my higher mind attribute since I didn't do any fighting. The rule about using either one for a mental challenge seemed to apply, even to a laser cutting the door open challenge since it didn't require brute force. But I was able to use the body attribute as a sink for the time I got too much strain. :D At the same time, I chose a tech archetype in a solo game, so figured I'd be stealthing and hacking, not running and gunning and needed all the advantages I could get!
