[QUOTE="drakhe, post: 449086, member: 4930"] We've been playing the Enemy within campaign for the last couple of years and it was a blast! I just feel unfortunate not to have been there at the beginning as I joined the campaign halfway thru as a replacement player. Right now we're back at square one with Kreutzhoven and Death's dark shadow. It realy is the setting that works and the atmosphere (medieval CoC like previous posters noted). The world is fully established and there is lots to do and more to search for. If you stick to the existing campaigns and world, you'll probably be concentrating a lot on the politics of the Empire and how it deals with the Chaos threat. System wise I like the carreers as a means to evolve your character, I find the percentile system to be very intuitive and as for the character creation, my GM allows rerolls (eg he'll say something like: you have 6 rerolls during character creation) or give free choice of starting class/race. I guess the only gripe I have is with the magic system. I find it a bit restrictive and tends to lead to lots of resting and meditating to get those much needed magic points back (in our campaign we actualy use a heavily adapted system based on the first Realms of Sorcery draft that has been floating arround the net) The main problem with WFRP is Games Workshop. GW are not interested in RPG's (thats why they sold of the rights to Hogshead) but hold a very tight reign on what Hogshead does to make shure they don't deviate from what's happening in the Warhammer world as prescribed for the miniatures game. As far as I heard at least a couple of raw scripts had to be scratched because GW didn't aprove them. But it seems Hogshead is being treated with some leniency lately because we're beginning to see some new product: Realms of sorcery , dying by the light, Marienburg, the dwarf book and soon to come the elven book. Right now we're basicaly waiting for the re-issue of the last part of the enemy within campaign. [/QUOTE]
