Doing My Part for the Economy
I had an opportunity to visit the Indifferent Local Game/Comic Store on Sunday. My haul consisted entirely of things I really didn't need, namely: Old World Armoury for the Warhammer Fantasy RPG (used), Star Crusade for Fading Suns (also used), The Greatest Batman Stories Ever Told, and Serenity: Better Days.
I read through Better Days very quickly, and was not impressed; I'm hoping that it is better with a more leisurely reading. I've also noticed that some of the early Batman stories - particularly Batman vs. the Monk, I think it was called - are much more cursory than I am accustomed to (Batman goes from Gotham to Paris - stopping on a cruise ship in between - in the space of a couple of panels) and quite bizarre (I didn't think vampires and werewolves were interchangeable).
Edit: I forgot to mention that what I really wanted was Freedom's Most Wanted for Mutants & Masterminds and/or the new Song of Ice and Fire RPG, neither of which are out yet. Or so I thought.
