That's the 5th edition of Champions, right? I noticed it in the game store and didn't pick it up because I have 4th, and all the Hero supplements. I GM a viking campaign and run events at some conventions. The other reason I didn't look at it is because Stephen Long was listed as the editor and we disagree on a lot of stuff. He likes fighting and emphasizes how to build combat monsters. I like role-playing, and my players only occasionally get into battle (mostly if they were too short-sighted to see the other approaches to the problem at hand). This difference affects the way we go about building characters, and explains why all the useful skills are so expensive compared to combat levels. However, if it has Poser art in it, I should take a peek. Thanks for the heads-up. Carolly
