[QUOTE="Jürgen Hubert, post: 1998984, member: 7177"] Not me. While I do like d20, I think it works best when the campaign has strong archetypes and the characters rise rapidly in power - in other words, when it is D&D. Warhammer isn't like that. It's about a bunch of losers who are looking for fame and fortune, get side-tracked by having to prevent a plot to destroy a city, a nation, or the world by nefarious forces, and end up dead, mad, or as futitives as a reward for their efforts. As someone once said it: "WHFRP is where the players start out thinking they are playing D&D, but are gradually realizing that they are in fact playing Call of Cthulhu!" Or, directly from the new book: "There are worlds where courageous heroes who stand for all that is good and righteous watch over populaces of decent folk who seek to enrich their own lives and better those of the people around them. "This isn't one of those worlds." [/QUOTE]
