[QUOTE="Spell, post: 2503194, member: 19718"] ok... so, after some 10 years, i can say i was unfair to the italian publisher... i have to say, though, that the 5th edition of call of cthulhu was instrumental in my change of policy when it came to buying (no more italian translations!). since then, it has been responsile for: 1. the sky-rocketing in my english skills. 2. the realisation that some parts of GURPS did made sense... they were just translated poorly. 3. the realisation that the art of english version of the warhammer core book was not supposed to look like a patchwork from a thousand different sources. 4. the demise of the italian role playing industry (:D well, not really! i suppose a lot of other people just got sick of waiting ages for translation that, sometimes, were obviously made by people who either didn't get role playing games at all, or didn't have a fantastic knowledge of english to begin with...) ;) [/QUOTE]
