If I get Hero, Star Hero, and Terran Empire will I have a complete ruleset and setting and be able to start right away? And will I only need to build new ships, aliens etc. as I come up with new ideas?
I'm new to Hero. I know if I buy the Hero rulebook I need to use the rules to build ships, vehicles, aliens, planets etc. from scratch. If I understand Terran Empire (and more generically Star Hero), though, a lot of this work is done for me, providing balanced ships, weapons, maybe psionics (not sure if it is part of the setting), aliens etc. Am I correct in my thinking?
