It was looking at the XP and how your circle gain XP that I saw that your healing and recovery between missions was tied to XP and that without spending one of your 5 recoveries per level. Now they also have the milestones which are every 7xp or about ever session, but nothing in the qs uses them. If everyone recovered like 1 wound and got back one or two of their luck mechanic every milestone then I could see how you could just continue to have this sprawling episodic story about your circle and how they worked to stop the bleed. Now I will more than likely still be buying the book or at least the pdf when it comes out so I can see more, if only because I want a different horror game to run. While I love CoC it is best at one shots and can be a little more complex than my players prefer. I am tired of world of darkness, and Vaesen is too rooted in really fairy tales where I prefer more gothic literature feeling for my games. I am still waiting on Old Gods of Appalachia but most other Cypher games your characters are to powerful for what I like so I am not quite sure if it will be low power enough for what I want in a horror game.</blockquote>
