[QUOTE="JeffB, post: 960152, member: 518"] I personally wouldn't say horribly complicated, but I agree: definitely not as easy as rolling a D20 or % dice :) The 1st edition hardcover and original softover book were not nearly as clear as they could have been, but the 2cnd printings, and especially the 2cnd Edition game from LRgames, made it much easier for a new player/GM to pick up. Kinda like AoO in 3E: complicated to figure out as written at first, but pretty easy to in actual play with a few sessions under the belt. It took the players and I a couple of sessions to get used to it, thankfully the character record sheets provided a "Step" table as did the GM screen. It actually became very easy to use in short order. And yes, Earthdawn is a goldmine of ideas for ANY system! The boxed supplements were nearly on par w/ the early RQ boxed sets! [/QUOTE]
