[QUOTE="BluSponge, post: 4442342, member: 916"] I agree that was a big mistep. Had Mythus Prime been released on its own first, and the Advanced rules broken down into smaller bits and companions, I think the game would have been a bigger hit. And, more than anything else, if T$R hadn't filed suit claiming ownership of things like "drow" and "spells", the game might have found an audience and had a longer, more fruitful life. Epic of Aerth, sadly, is not available on Paizo. I wish it was! That book is a gem and could stand alone by itself! You could use it for any game system really. I felt it was his best campaign setting, albeit lacking a bit of the more high-fantasy concepts. That, along with Living Fantasy are the two non-D&D game books I would recommend anybody get if they want to read the best Gary Gygax post-TSR work.[/QUOTE] I found Aerth to be VERY high magic(k) and high fantasy, there just isn't a lot of detail beyond the mundane, which is disappointing. But it still calls to me, God help me. Living Fantasy and Lejendary Pantheon (whenever that gets released) will complete the picture, however. I really wish WotC would release the PDF, as they have with Mythus and Mythus Magick, or that some enterprising company would license it and release an updated volume. That would be a game setting I couldn't say no too. Tom [/QUOTE]
