    I agree !!!!

    Anyone got any comments on the Harn game aid series from Columbia Games.
    I've just had to leave a C&S game that uses this (I moved away - I wasn't
    thrown out by the GM) and I really liked it. The wealth of background
    detail makes the whole thing seem extremely "real". By the time it's
    finished (early next century?) it should be unbelievable. It will also
    represent a major investment of capital. I don't know how much it costs
    elsewhere, but in the U.K. it's pretty pricey. I'm just glad that it 
    wasn't me buying it.

A friend of mine started his campaign a couple of months ago (yes, DND)
and he is using the Harn stuff.  It really is some good stuff.  I have been
thinking of getting at least the cities, because they are very detailed!


I'd like to hear other peoples comments about Harn.

Now, What do you people think of "Thieve's Guild"??  Have any
of you played it or have you just used some of the ideas in your other
campaigns?
