We are debating and playing around with the idea of dual statting OD for several other games as well, including RQ II and Castles and Crusades.
Not in the same issue: we are toying with the idea of producing several issues of each mag, each with different dual stats (DW stats will always be in there because we are beholden to Magnum Opus for allowing us this leeway to use Legend).
We strongly feel that Legend is a place and a flavour but not yet a game system. It is Robin of Sherwood, crossed with Dragonslayer, crossed with The Name of the Rose rather that the "disneyland" type fantasy found in many D&D default settings and we want to cater for the silent minority, who really don't play RPGs that way, but instead want a world that is low magic, humanocentric and really based on the medieval world.
I think there are a fair few such people but we need to reach them and using a 3.5 type system, as so many people play that, was a first step.
Anyway, if you have any other observations or thoughts, please let me know.
