So after several years without a group, I'm desperate enough to take some more direct action. At this point I'll play almost anything. So if there are any Newcastle groups needing an extra player, contact me.

What is the scope of the license? there's quite a lot of crossover between things like the DCU and Vertigo for instance. Will the game be set in one, the current time period? or will it also offer material for other time periods like pre-Crisis on Infinite Earths?

Well I liked it. :o Well...I found it very entertaining to read. I never actually played any of the adventures. How can anyone not like Bugsbear Bunny?

Now maybe the local players I know are unusual, but it seems fairly unlikely to me. Most hardcore D&D players I know just stick with Wizards products and pretty much ignore everything else for the most part.

Lots. At one point our group would buy the core book of every new system just so we could look at various mechanics so we could pillage them for house rules. Plus I get very bored if I play the same system for too long. Lately I haven't bought many though. Of course I haven't bought much RPG...

I have to admit I find that unlikely in this day and age given the way megacorps feel about licensing. As for myself, this in no way affects how I feel about the RPG or these novels. They'll be looked at on a case by case basis. Admittedly JMS' early treatment of Mongoose has something to do...

Thats good to hear. I was hoping to use it with Rolemaster (or HARP).

Wow. Talk about thread necromancy. For a second I though someone had hacked my account and was posting stuff as I didn't even I remember posting this. :)

Earthdawn did too.

And me with Rolemaster.

I rather liked Masters of Rome by Colleen McCullough. Also the Egyptian stories by Christian Jacq.

I thought it was pretty awful myself. Cicero must be rolling in his grave. Hopefully the HBO show will turn out better.

I on the other hand adore them more now. They remind me of what I felt was really lacking in the films.

Oddly enough I'm tempted to buy it just for the Stephanie Law art. Hopefully her art is inside as well as outside.

Anyone know where I'm likely to find details about Mirabar and the surrounding area? especially maps? Are there any adventures published for this area, be it in Dungeon or elsewhere?
