And yet many of us have MADE these criticisms. I've criticised various aspects, as have just about everyone else you are arguing with. It is criticism that is not backed up by solid facts that does not work. I, and others, have at various points asked you to explain what you actually see as wrong. To the best of my recollection, the only reply we have received was a lack of an adequate map or gazeeter for Sartar. I, for one, have already agreed with you on this. Others have made this point before. Your other complaint that the books focus too much on myths is, IMO, (a) wrong an (b) natural given the highly mythic nature of Glorantha.

So you say. I say, let anyone who has a point to make, make it. If they can make it in a reasonable manner, rather than ignoring questions and making circular, vague arguments, then I, at the very least, will be happy to see the comments. For example, see the difference between Stefan's recent comments, and the reaction to these, as opposed to your own.

Cheers,
Graham
