[QUOTE="teitan, post: 8777426, member: 3457"] The DCC system would be the best system for it in my opinion as it is already written with Moorcock in mind, especially the Elf class, its just a Melnibonean emperor in Elf clothes after all. I think of all the fantasy stuff out there Elric, more than any other, lends itself to TV's nature better than the rest. The books, especially the classic 6 (or 7?) are shorter than the epic sprawls that they seem to want to adapt to the small screen like GRR Martin or Witcher. They won't have to butcher the stories to fit the 10-13 episode format. The darker more horror elements would really play to the modern audience that bought into GoT and The Witcher without looking like... The Witcher or GoT. The story is unique, it has visual flair, it has pathos and an operatic breadth and the doomed ending is certain but how it ends, well, it won't be like GoT where only a few saw that swerve coming from Season 1. I'd add Lankhmar to that list too, wonderful set up there for a series even thought it doesn't really have a conclusion. [/QUOTE]
