[QUOTE="Doctor Futurity, post: 7995635, member: 10738"] Agreed. But the issue here is that it can be difficult to parse of where Invisible Sun falls without being able to expose yourself to it. I held off for the longest time for this reason before taking the plunge on the Black Cube. I ended up being very happy with a product that was right up my gaming group's wheelhouse, really one of the best such games I've bought since Unknown Armies....but I had to be willing to burn $250ish dollars and take the plunge blind which was not ideal; I mainly gambled I could move it on Ebay to no loss if I turned out to have made a mistake. Luckily I love the surrealistic take on magic and the occult (it's like a friendlier version of the Kult universe) but I had to trust that since I owned every other MCG product that they wouldn't suddenly steer me wrong here, too, and that paid off (luckily).
