Quote:it's the adventures that are really important.I wish that the page count reflected that priority. 2/3 rules, 1/3 adventure is not typical of NG. I probably will buy DMC, since I have Seas of...

Quote:I'd hoped for a short, better take on sea rules, not a book which fills gaps and assumes the adoption of another ruleset.I've learned that you can't use the word "short" when trying to write a...
