"The reason there's no points-build system is that by definition, a points-build system gives players control over who they're playing, fine-tuning them to be as good in certain areas as they want to be (not necessarily min-maxing, just fiddling numbers around).

This leads to an antithesis of the WFRP PC. In WFRP, you're meant to be a random individual caught up in a shitstorm."

Thank you for pointing that out. My first impulse, upon reading about the random character generation, is to dismiss the game out of hand. Because of your comment, I have reconsidered. I'll give it a look.
