Ghosts of Albion

I'm taking a short break from Buffy material as I read Ghosts of Albion and see how it all works together. I still have a little more to go, but then I have stuff for a lot of older games. I also recently got the version of Gamma World I had as a child and I'm trying to figure out a way to solo it.

I'm hoping to share the Champions material, but it's formatted for the Web and it's proven a real pain to transfer, so I may not be able to do that. The Dark Conspiracy things I may try to combine and self-publish because there is so much of it. I hope to share anything else I am doing, as well.

Just because I'm not doing fantasy now doesn't mean I won't or don't like it, I just have some games I want to play that apparently aren't fantasy. I didn't choose them based on genre. I have several fantasy games I do want to play at some point but I have adopted the UniSystem (in general) for my engine because I like a d10 scale, so I'm likely to work on expanding the information for a fantasy setting given in Army of Darkness.

It's also the holidays, so I'm stretching my time thin. I'm hoping to get through all of this reading during the holidays, but I'm also hoping I can do some cooking and eating then, too. Ghosts of Albion is really good, but not everything jibes 100% with The Magic Box, and it's different from WitchCraft, so some features will take some work. However, it really opens up the worlds of werewolves and Faerie, and has Skills and Qualities that round-out both humans and Vampyre, as well. Depending on how you choose to take your campaign, I think it's more important to the system than Army of Darkness.
