[QUOTE="Gothmog, post: 4065438, member: 317"] YES! This is great news. The thought of BI being gone and no more WHFRP or Dark Heresy had me really bummed. I'm glad to see FFG get the licenses- they do incredible jobs with their board games, Grimm, and Midnight. I only hope and pray to the God-Emperor that they do NOT go the d20 route for the WHFRP and WH40K games. I can't see that they would though, considering they say they are expanding the lines for those games, and keeping existing books in print. Its a percentile-based system, somewhat like the BRP system, but with more "fiddly bits" attached to it for character customization. Upon reading the system, some things look a little hard to grasp (degrees of success for example), but in play its a very fast and dynamic system, very intuitive, and a great system to play. The system is designed for a fairly gritty level of play, not supermen- so its a different experience than d20 entirely. I find the system much more fun and easier to play than any d20 game, and its a breeze to prep for. I'd definitely buy Dark Hersy- its one of the most impressive RPG books I've ever seen, and has a ton of great material in it. So far, the DH main book is the only one out, but there are 3 more scheduled for later this year. [/QUOTE]
