But your review left me with an odd impression that it was no Runequest so much as Chivalry and Sorcery that the game might bear some resemblance to.....
It is nothing like RuneQuest by any stretch of the imagination. As for C&S I must say the third edition is certainly worth a look, imo. I've also been told good things about the 4th ed as well. The first and second? Well maybe good to read rather than to play.. In comparison FI is neither enjoyable to read or play.
