I have bought into every Gloranthan system so far - Issaries can count on my investment in the latest HQ. Will see what it can add to my game and possibly even supplant all the hard work I've been doing.

Don't think so for Glorantha though - my group are fantasy simulationist junkies - I fully intend to use the HQ system for superheroes though - Bruce Ferrie's efforts met all my superhero needs - great idea for comic book goodness.
