Very fun and well-done! Telling the "next chapter" of F.A.N.G. is very cool and makes this feel like a must-play after a few sessions of EtR. Love the use of the Cryptids and how they are used on both sides of the war. Reminds me a bit of the FABLES comic series. Mechanically, I like the DEFCON idea and how it is affected by the use of abilities - definitely raises stakes on "going in loud" - very clever.
Bonus points for a slick layout and amazing art that captures the style so well. That map is amazing too.
