Not trying to add contention, but Stafford seems to be very mutable about Glorantha. In KODP what you are dealing with is what David Dunham is presenting in the game. The game mainly operates from an Orlanthi view point of view. I enjoy the game and David's views and contributions to the mythos, but it really doesn't provide a real understanding of Glorantha. KOPD has been an education for my gaming group as to how thing may work. David's Pendragon Pass has been a main stay in our Rune Quest at this point. We have enjoyed Pendragon (I've played for years). Now that we have been playing KOPD we have been trying to merge KOPD with Pendragon Pass into a RPG enviroment. We are trying to use Pendragon Pass rules, but believe Hero Wars will be a better system (love to have it). Sorry, I guess this doesn't have too much to do with this mailing list, but if you could direct me to the appropiate forum I would appreciate it.
Thanks,
Aaron
P.S. The point of the post was that one of the best things about Glorantha is it incorporates differant viewpoints, and in KOPD you deal with one. I enjoy arguing diferent viewpoints with my friends about Glorantha.
