[QUOTE="Dragonblade, post: 3307702, member: 2804"] I would play and I think it would be fun as long as the DM was serious about it. I played a 40th level character once and it was brutal. The DM gave detailed descriptions, had great NPCs and described everything in awesome detail. Even though the game was high level it still had a gritty feel, he had played Warhammer FRP for years and I felt like I would die at any moment. Our game centered around the PCs trying to lead the invasion against a fortress held by the forces of an ancient vampire lord. We faced entire units of monsters with various class levels. For example, we fought a unit of about 20 16th level fighter fire giants. And they were armed to the teeth with magical gear appropriate for their level as if they were PCs. And concerns about us getting those items? Not really an issue. Why would I pick up a giant sized +5 sword when I already carry epic weapons and am a gp millionaire? So there was not much looting, and much more role-playing. Which was great! We also fought a unit of about 10 Winter Wights.
