5 persons have something to say about this!:
it would seem that Uma Thurman finally finished the job she set out to do years ago
(2) Ken Hite? This is going to make me get into Savage Worlds, isn't it?
(3) Necessary?
(4) Yes, we're all scrambling to move shop. As my corner of the forums was pretty much the art section, I think I'll be going to braxiatel.com. I'm more sorry about the information resources.
(5) STOP MAKING ME GET INTO SAVAGE WORLDS!
(6) Later than I expected. No matter, I'm not missing it.
(7) Yes, pretty obvious casting when you think about it.
(8) Sticks to the classic looks. Good.
(9) TOO LATE!
(10) Does this mean I get my Who RPG faster?!
(11) Not ugly enough? But getting away from Two-Face is probably a good idea.
(14) Haha. Have fun.
The thing about my advocacy of Savage Worlds is that I still haven't actually played it myself!
Depending on the ETA of the Doctor Who RPG (and how it pans out, of course), Savage Worlds may well be the "go to" system for our next campaign, but that probably won't kick off until next year as I'm still vacillating over the genre/setting!
Thanks for the good wishes about tonight's game - I will, naturally, report back in due course!
Hmmm, cool news about the Cubicle 7 news. Thanks. And Brian Blessed! Awesome! I hope it's true. Certainly, his long association with Branagh makes that rumor easier to swallow.
Brian Blessed would be perfect for that role, so I hope there's truth in that rumour as well!
As for Cubicle 7, anything that frees them up to devote more time to getting the Doctor Who RPG (a) perfect and (b) printed is welcome :)
