I'm going to add an updated house rules post in the next day or so - it just codifies some of the stuff that came up in the course of play and adds a couple of HR that will probably have nothing to do with [i]Wing and Sword[/i], but I'm throwing them in anyway since it's my generic house-rule compendium for Modern. ;) I'll also be handing out your 'homework' assignments in the next couple of weeks, to flesh out certain details about your character backgrounds so that I can work them into the campaign. Hope you're all having as much fun as I am! :cool: [/QUOTE]
