Since only one persona in any group I've been in has ever bothered to own a book, we all have to wait for it to pass around. Even then it takes twice as long to do so than most systems. Not too mention stupid names like PPE and ISP and other stats that made me long for Top Secret and their tertiary stats.No editing or QA. The things are typed out and printed without being looked at as far as I can tell. Even their errata has errata and there's rarely an index in any book.Fluff is along the lines of a teenage power-gamer wet dream.Sometimes, in certain examples, the system isn't too bad and seems to fit the game. In others, it's just pure pain and obfuscation.</blockquote>
