Oh, well, I'll get used to it, I am working just from 3 chapters... But after being told 'out in March' then discovering I'll be lucky to see HW before May, I'm getting a bit impatient :) And playing KoDP has me almost slavering to go back home to Glorantha...

One question to Those Who Know: Are non-humans (especially Aldryami and Minotaurs - yes, I know, I know, but still...) sufficiently detailed in HW to use as PCs given enough RuneQuest-based racial knowledge? Otherwise a couple of my old PCs need severely re-writing or retiring. I had intended our group to restart the same characters, at the new somewhat higher level of ability.
