Anyone looked into Temporality?

[Napftor]

Temporality--a book on time travel and the fusing of d20 fantasy, modern, and future--has gotten three good reviews but there's been no discussion of it elsewhere. True, it's a larger pdf and not been out overly long, but I was wondering what consumer thoughts are on it. I'm considering writing some expansions for it but was hoping for some more feedback before doing so.

If you don't know what I'm talking about, here's a link to the product and its reviews at RPGNow: http://www.rpgnow.com/product_info.php?products_id=6874&SRC=EnWorld
It is also at the ENGS here: http://www.enworld.org/shop/?productsid=129&

I have, but you knew that. I posted the review on EN World now so hopefully more people will see that.

Does it have rules for aliens which look like humans covered with silver paint?

(I'm watching the old show "The Time Tunnel" and those aliens seem to be recurring villains. Despite the silly effects and bad science, it's actually quite an enjoyable show)

I know this is a bit of a threadjack, but I'd also be interested in hearing how you would compare it with the Second World Sourcebook, Crothian.

How does it compare to Blood and Time?

No, but it does have golden-furred good-aligned minotaurs.

The other questions Crothian will have to tackle as I'm not familiar with Blood and Time--beyond knowing that it deals with d20Modern rules and Temporality comes at time travel from a fantasy perspective but also includes rules for Modern/Future.

I may be doing my own comparative review soon.

I am no fan of time travel in RPGs, so this should be an interesting task for me.

I'd need to go through Second World Sourcebook again. I haven't read that in years.

How does it compare to Blood and Time?

They really don't cover much of the same. Blood and Time is aimed at a modern game, Temporality is aimed at the fantasy game. Blood and Time has some advice for dealing with time travel, modern advanced classes, low tech items, and a very large time line. Temporality deals more with the effects of time travel, interesting fantasy concepts of it, and spells.

I'd definitely like to see this, Psion.
