Since I don't have it yet I can't say 100% one way or the other, but I doubt I will be disappointed. For the average gamer I would recomend picking up the player's guide, reading the free stuff on monte's site, and then deciding.  However, if you never plan on running a game (not just playing but running) set in Ptolus I doubt you will find it worth the money.</blockquote>
