[QUOTE="Nytmare, post: 5422333, member: 55178"] I don't think that I was ever part of a group where the books weren't a shared resource though. This product is basically set up so that each player has (I'm assuming) their own private stack of cards geared around their own character's schtick. Sure people can share/trade the cards that they aren't using, but sharing leftovers is an entirely different thing. Pretend you have a 100 page splat book that you payed 20 bucks for. That's 5 cents a page. Let's pretend some more and say that you could maybe fit 10 powers on each page. That's half a cent per power, and you could share it with all your friends. Heck you could even have two characters in the same game using the same power at the same time. If this ends up working for them, that's 50 cents for a 1/10th of a page of a book that no one else can use. [EDIT] God, the full weight of that is just hitting home. It's bordering on brilliant, I just wish they were saving it for a game I didn't want to play. [/QUOTE]
