We're having fun with Yggdrasil, but the combat system is a bit whiffy, and not really in a fun WFRP (1e) way. But when you get hit, you fucking know about it.

Onion soup all round.

Odd to see "Labyrinth Lord" published by Sine Nomine, though.

Well deserved. It's a cracking game.

Also, related(ish). Vincent Baker has brought some of the mechanisms from AW over into his new Lamentations of the Flame Princess book, The Seclusium of Orphone of the Three Visions (http://www.lotfp.com/store/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=171), especially concerning ability rolls. From a quick glance at the pdf, it looks ace and very easy to use and implement. I'm waiting anxiously for the book to arrive from James in Finland. Then we will se, what forum around here discussions about it belongs :)
