This is an excellent break-down of the tone each of these parts of Glorantha has. The systems you map to each culture/area definitely give a different "feel" to what goes on in each place.

The system support for the setting's tone is one of the most overlooked aspects of modern game design, IMO.

On the other side of the argument, I do believe there are ways to use BRP to support non-adventure games. Very much looking forward to HiG, despite being somewhat disenchanted with the setting. Please let me know if we on the other side of the pond might get our hands on your 'zine!
