[QUOTE="S'mon, post: 1710956, member: 463"] Midnight does need a lot of tweaking to make it playable - I get the impression most of the "ever grimmer" fans on Against the Shadow boards have never or rarely actually GM'd it (never mind played it!) - luckily my GM Stalkingblue has done an excellent job on this, playing up the heroic struggle vs evil and playing down the scavenging for rotten turnips... scavenging for rotten turnips (with a DC 25 Survival roll, if you believe the Netbook) does indeed quickly lose its charm. :) However, Midnight does have very strong mood & feel - even if that mood and feel is rather "1984"-ish - so I'd never call it bland. For blandest product I'll vote for the Book of Challenges (*meh*); though admittedly most WoTC 3e materials are incredibly bland, which is why I prefer 3rd-party stuff usually. [/QUOTE]
