2nd ed DQ. was my first game in 1981 and always my fav. VQ uses the same 'rules' set so skill group of Channeller, Doctor, Scientist, Academic etc and 'rules lightened' somewhat but ported to 1865 Victorian London. was frustrated that every victoriana out there had steampunk, fantasy...

i think Cleave i just didnt notice was different until pointed out to me, and also poeple mis-reading power attack

WHFRP is preety popular in the uk. i my self dont see the appeal, but thats not to discuss here I think at the first the UK-RPG community where all a bit up in arms for the most part, athe announcement of 3rd ed. Mostly the power card/special dice approach. I think the forums calmed pretty...
