Hey! If you're trying to decide between the Starfinder RPG Armory Pocket Edition and the hardcover version, here's some stuff to keep in mind.

The Pocket Edition is perfect if you like to game on the go. It’s got all the content from the hardcover but in a size that's way easier to carry around.

The manufacturer mentions that it includes everything you’d find in the full-sized Armory, like a ton of weapons, armor, tech, magical items, and upgrades for different character classes—whether you’re into brawling or sneaking around.

The big win with the Pocket Edition is how portable it is. It’s a softcover, so you can easily take it to game nights wherever they are. Our research shows that despite being smaller, it doesn’t skimp on the content or layout, so you can still find stuff quickly when you need it.

Visually, it’s got everything the original does with all the illustrations, which is pretty awesome. One thing to note, though, is some folks find the text a bit small, so reading it might be tricky if the lighting isn't great or if you usually need glasses.

On the plus side, it’s easier on the wallet, which could be a big factor. If you need all the Armory's goodies but don't want to shell out too much or cram another hardback on your shelf, this is a good bet.

Bottom line: think about what fits your gaming lifestyle better. If portability and cost are key for you, the Pocket Edition is really handy and doesn’t make you miss out on the RPG fun.
