Comparing 3rd party sourcebooks

[LoneWolf23]

Okay, has anyone compared Goodman Games' Forgotten Heroes: Fang, Fist, and Song and Expeditious Retreat's Advanced Player's Guide, to see which one's better? I'm interested in either one of them, but unsure which one to buy.

I personally preferred APG, but both are good. Main reason is, though, that I found more useful things in the APG (I liked lingering wounds a lot).

They do have a lot of overlap, though.

If I have to compare, I would say that APG is far far better IMO. It just feels 4e, while FFaS feels like the 3.x classes rammed down the 4e rules. If that makes any sense.
