Cool- I'll see if I can check that out. It is veeeeery slightly different, though, if I'm reading it right?

It sounds like the above shows scenes of the <i>characters</i>, with the narration in little siedbars. WGP actually shows the players going through the motions of declaring actions, drawing cards etc (interjected with scenes of the characters). But the focus is definitely centered on the PLAYERS, and how the game is physically played.

Reason: Because as the first poster pointed out, the play is a little new-ish, and would be hard to understand with verbal cues alone for "visual" or "tactile/kinesthetic" learners.

But still, I gotta see that Champions book.
