[QUOTE="AdmundfortGeographer, post: 2152949, member: 4682"] Oh, I'm fully aware of that now. Or rather a few years ago. By then I was far too deep into D20 everything to have money to spend elsewhere. I've gathered my senses on purchasing D20 anything today. It may have been entirely a misunderstanding at the time, but way back then it looked like a simple vehicle to lure folks into the money machine of the minis wargame. I didn't want to even start down that road, it was a rational choice. Looking back then it was as irrational as when I decided to play "AD&D" instead of "D&D" because one was "advanced" and the other was "basic", and I didn't think I was a "basic" gamer. Self flattery and all that. I've since bothered to check out what I was missing and I've been figuratively beating myself up over it. The D&D of the "Basic" era was a superior game in many ways. Since 3e, I've only had so many dollars to spend at my hobbies so I stayed pretty narrowly in the D&D orbit. I feel this with WFRP is just like my belatedly late discovery of "Basic" D&D. The sort of moment of "damn me! What have I been denying myself all this time out of uninformed prejudice!" I've looked at WFRP 2nd ed. pretty closely now, I really like what Green Ronin has done, and it feels like a low fantasy game I would enjoy. I will be getting this... as soon as I can summon up some cash that won't interfere with my D&D/D20 scheduled purchases. ;) Maybe that tax refund I'll be getting... :] [/QUOTE]
