Martin Laurie said that we never saw RQ stats for Gloranthan Style Heroes. However, we did see Arduin Grimoire (i.e. the most appalling hack of DnD ever seen) stats for a select bunch from WB&RM. They seem a pretty chuffy bunch in that context...

As for HW being like Tunnels and Trolls: In the sense that in TnT you knew how dangerous a combat was by how big the bucket was that the GM carried his dice around in, it's different. It reminds me more of a LARP system with a d20 replacing rude gestures. Essentially, a superficially simple system with 20 pages of special cases.
