Reception
James Wallis reviewed Strike Force: Shantipole for Games International magazine, and gave it 3 1/2 stars out of 5, and stated that "Strike Force: Shantipole runs well as a Star Wars adventure, but it lacks depth and, apart from the new alien race and the upgraded B-Wings it contains little of any great consequence, not even an interesting NPC. All in all, it is a useful package for those who don't want to write their own material for Star Wars but by no means an essential buy."[1]
