[QUOTE="Neo, post: 908815, member: 4139"] heh actually Gallo22 I've played all 1st to 4th (but not Alternity) a bunch over the last 23 years I've been gaming. It is in fact after AD&D (as it was then) the second most commonly played game I've ever GM'ed throughout that time and I am familiar with every aspect of it. Running 2nd edition and the legion of Gold for my Brother and Cousins is still one of the fondest recollections I have... and every version has been full of grit and grim, sure it was cool trying to workout whether or not a gum dispenser was some sort of ranged weapon or not but that isn't what I mean when I say I'm hoping the imminent version won't be comedic (which by the sounds of it, it won't be some I'm happy) as that aspect was just an enjoyable aspect of the game. And I certainly haven't read ro seen anything about any previous editions to make me think it was intended as a comedic game as I felt Omega was presented (though was still very well produced mind). GW is VERY Mad Maxi'sh, very Omega Man ish, even to a point very Fallout'ish.... but it certainly isn't and has never been Toon'ish :D As far as this next incarnation is concerned Bruce has alreayd put my fears to bed and answered my main worries over it, and I'm looking forward to getting my grubby little mits on this book when it comes out.
