I am very interested in Harn and will one day money allowing I will pick it up. Bedrockgames thanks for the warning about how it id packaged that won't bother me. I have things on PDF that I have printed out and put in notebooks.
The people in our group are not jerks it is just that it is hard to get to get together with everyone schedule to play and they are attached to their characters and the current campaigns. So most would be very unhappy for our limited gaming time to be something new different from the campaign we are in.
The best time would be at the start of a new one. I know my roommate is planning on switching to Pathfinder as soon as we finish her Age of Worms adventure path.
The other issue is that since we don't have a lot of time to play and so we make characters for games via email so we are ready to go on game day. Since I would be the only one with a copy of the game I would either have to make pre gens which might not be a bad idea to try a one shot or have a day just making characters.I would also have to deal with the power gamers of our group who are the most resistant of switching to a system they own or know.
I have noticed that the older some of us get the more set in our ways we become back in the hey days of my gaming life I was willing to try anything and so was my group. I also had way more money to spend. I went out and bought every Talislanta book and Lost worlds of Atlantis after making characters for a game that didn't go anywhere. Now a days I look very closely before I buy anything and it requires planning and saving.
