I wasn't talking about any specific campaign, just outlining the philosophy I had adopted when I was with MD, in response to a point about how different Glorantha was to Mythic Russia

I'm not saying they are not. If you recall this discussion originally started not as being about GAC specifically but more generally about the availability of stats for all the VIPs.

Wesley wasn't narrating and Martin made up stats on the fly -- he tended to adopt the principle of 'if I want this to be a challenge, I'll give the antagonist a one mastery advantage over the playerhero'  rather than having pre-generated stats. So you lose your bet ;-)
