[QUOTE="cignus_pfaccari, post: 5243218, member: 14557"] We ran an Aberrant game with that, and imported part of it for a Birthright campaign. It was okay. Part of the issue is I didn't really understand what I was doing with character building, and I dislike games like that. The bits pasted on for the Birthright game (for the blood powers) were easier to manage, as they were an add-on and not the main event. But that took an awful lot of work on the DM. I picked this (maybe 2e, it was a LONG time ago) up to flip through in my FLGS back in the day, and my eyes bled. I realize that not every gaming book has to be a textbook; hell, I grew up gaming* with Shadowrun, with the "one gun/car/cyberware per page and comments" supplements. But BESM was just so horribly busy and hard to read I set it down almost immediately after. Brad * - The Vindicator minigun from Street Samurai Catalog is directly responsible for my getting into gaming. Hell, I named a D&D character after it. [/QUOTE]
