He had the mutant ability of super speed, and took the name of the deceased Super Sabre.

Striker (miniatures game)

The miniatures game Striker is a science fiction tactical wargame that was published by Game Designers' Workshop in 1981 as a boxed expansion to the Traveller role-playing game. It was notable for attempting to cover a broad range of technological levels and having an intricate "engineering" style of vehicle design by the player using formulas and tables. The combat rules were an elaboration on the rules introduced in the Azhanti High Lightning game, using a 2D6 mechanic very different from the original "Traveller" rules. A later game, Striker II, was based on the systems in GDW's Command Decision WWII rules and tied to the role-playing game Traveller: The New Era.
