The Eclipse Syndicate is the only group entry, so far, in Green Ronin Games line of Rouges Gallery supplements. Like other entries in the series it consists of several standard subsections dealing with the group’s history, motivations/goals, their tactics, and resources available to the team, before delving into descriptions of individual team members.
As far as content goes, the Eclipse Syndicate consists of four members, all female, each being a clone, but with a distinctly different power set. With the exception of one member, they’re all PL10 characters, who can easily be dropped into any ongoing campaign. The group makes its living acting as super powered muscle for hire, and fill out that role nicely.
My one complaint, and it’s no fault of the writer, is that I feel that this should have been a slightly larger product, with some additional info on the members of the team. Coming in at 5 pages, with only 3 pages devoted to actual content, it feels a bit “cramped”. I’d have gladly paid extra for the additional content. Don’t get me wrong, I like the supplement I just wanted a bit “more” from it.
Overall, I’m giving this one four out of five stars.
