[QUOTE="00Machado, post: 3740431, member: 23690"] I think something along the lines of, "Grimly real, and internally consistent." is more important than the free downloads. I'm not going to look at the setting primarily because it has free downloads. What, in your view, is the most important selling point for those who aren't already using it? I'd tier the sellings points in this order, and phrased more or less as follows: Looking for a new setting, but not a new rules system? Try Harn! Grimly real, and internally consistent (Bold) - maybe use the word realistic instead of real. Or grim realisim and internal consistency. (Optional subtype) Consider adding a few highlights - such as monster ecologies that make sense Packed with campaign themes that ring with authenticity - adventures in Harn could be history if they weren't fiction! Acclaimed by fans and designers alike (Bold) (Subtype) See if you can insert a quote by a someone people will recognize, specifically, people who aren't already Harn fans. Rules independent. (Bold) (Subtype) Don't be bogged down learning new rules. Take the setting and enjoy dynamic, detailed play experiences using the rules you already know and like! Contents include Make the notes about color maps, big details, small details, etc. My $.02 [/QUOTE]
