I have to say A2 is probably the worst of the set. There were some really ridiculous encounters, such as a beehive in a dungeon. Yeah, because bees just love it to be cold, dark and dank.
I've done several reviews for various MegaTraveller products that should be going up on rpg.net sometime next week. I've had to give "average" ratings because, well, it is average. The detail is great, but on some key issues the design is really quite wrong. The combat system for example requires tracking two types of armour and two types of damage. It's nuts. We've ended up using the old Traveller system instead.
Now, as for RuneQuest, there's still plenty of people playing that all over the place. Maybe you should join a pbem?
