[QUOTE="Teflon Billy, post: 3730185, member: 264"] OK, I am finished reading [B]Witch Hunter[/B] (grabbed it at Gen Con) and have digested it enough that I think I can speak intelligently about it. Though I have yet to run a game, so far this thing is packed to the gills with awesomeness. Seriously, the "tweaks" to the game world (meaning historical tweaks to our own world) are subtle enough to leave verisimilitude intact, but nicely enough done that modern sensibilities needn't be entirely suppressed to enjoy the game. The art is fantastic and evocative. I'm not sure if the choice to go B&W over color was a financial or artistic one, but in any event, color art would've added nothing to the "feel" and probably would've necessitated the use of something I hate...glossy paper. I love reading this book sans overhead lighting glare. This thing is a front runner for "Game I am Going to Run at Gen Con" next year :) Thanks to CM's [b]Tabloid Beleiver[/b] for giving me a heads-up on this book early enough that I grabbed it before it sold out.
