Uh, anyway, good review, points well made as ever, and "party in your brain" is always a good thing.

As are girls in leather trousers.

While I really liked the book and plan to use some of it in my WitchCraft campaign (and my wife is definately gonna use it in our Buffy Season 2), one thing annoyed us a bit; no rules for being a Summoner.

Andrew is clearly not a witch; no TK and he never cast any real spells. But he can summon demons.

Of course, you can just make that up.

Just a clarification... the artist on the archetype art was C Brent Ferguson. He has been doing all the Buffy and Angel archetypes since the Slayers Handbook. Not rk Post - rk only did the corebook.

Good point. In fact the show hinted it ran in families - Andrews older brother Tucker summoned Hellhounds after all. Maybe in the Welcme to Sunnydale write up for Andrew?

Do chuid

"It's also a complete non-issue now that Witchcraft is available entirely for free (God Bless Eden!)."

What do you mean it is free? Where?

Heh, after the long fan boy love letter rant about how RK was god, this is hilarious.

Well, I feel sheepish.

I guess I just assumed, because they were so good...but now I think about it, they aren't his style.

Okay, so, put it this way: whoever is doing the pics, they smoke all the ass. Kudos to both artists and to Eden for making such good art choices.
