Long time no poll!

I will of course buy the 1st edition too when it arrives.

SGL.

I am not sure that I will buy the 1st Edition when it is released, because
a lot of interesting RPGs will be published this summer (Ephoran, Traveller,
etc.), and I have a limited RPG budget. So the 1st Edition may have to
wait until Christmas - but there is no doubt that I will buy it.

I'll probably buy it at a Convention as they usually offer some kind of discount.

I'll also buy the Rome and Iceland supplements for sure and possibly the SciFi ones, but that depends on how expensive they are and what comes out at the same time.

At the moment I am spending roughly between 40 and 60 pounds a month on RQ/HQ supplements and it's a lot of money. I see it as the equivalent of two pairs of shoes. My wife sees it as two pairs of shoes that she could have had.

The second option on the poll should be amended to "it's mostly the same".

The proper edition will have many, many edits and changes, including a variety of improvements and "missing" bits (like the section on spirit combat and all of the footnotes for the weapons tables, for example).

[frogspawner]

I'm the first option - but don't actually 'have' it, 'cos it's in the post - I hope that counts.

Maybe the second option should read "it's mostly the same and we'll have Jason's promised errata". Won't we?

I'm certainly down for a copy of BRP and Interplanetary, and probably one or more of the other sourcebooks too - will check them out as they come.

Jason - you mentioned spirit combat rules *drool* *drool*... any chance of a hint or two? Essentially the Ghostly Combat on p339 of BRP Zero, or something different?

Inquiring minds (in search of corporeal embodiment) wish to know!

Cheers,

Sarah

Ooh... that might be in there already.

My additions/edits were to a tape-bound pre-EZ version, and spirit combat wasn't in that book.

I'll have to check my EZ copy.

I plan on buying 1st edition when it comes out. And then again start posting more.

[Agentorange]

First edition for me, and no doubt I'll buy all the supplements. I might not use them all but the anally retentive RPG collector in me will give me no other choice.

I may buy the book when it comes out, but I won't know until I see it. I'm not at all sure it has anything of use to me, practically speaking, nor at this point do I feel like I owe the author or Chaosium any particular loyalty if it does not offer something I don't already have. Some of the rules choices don't make me sanguine about it...but the bottom line is I don't trust ANY game companies' promises any more, and will not commit to anything on word of mouth. I have been burned too many times. So a faint maybe. Very faint, because Chaosium stuff is rare in game stores around here anyway.
