Reception
[edit]William A. Barton reviewed SORAG in The Space Gamer No. 43.[1] Barton commented that "Unless the idea of Zhodani intelligence agents waiting around every corner for your hapless characters turns you off, you should find SORAG an intriguing addition to the Traveller mythos."[1]
Tony Watson reviewed SORAG for Different Worlds magazine and stated that "For the campaign that wishes to include spies and their ilk, or the GM who wises to add some new skills and equipment to his game, SORAG is a good choice."[3]
Nelson Cunnington reviewed the supplement for White Dwarf, giving the supplement an overall rating of 9.[4] Cunnington commented that "I feel Sorag is the best thing to come out of Paranoia Press so far, and hard to top [...] I can only recommend Sorag."[4]
