[BNW] BNW info

[Dan Massek <decker@phreaker.net>]

I had the pleasure of being one of the first people to buy BNW at
GenCon, so I thought I would share a quick thought on it. I am on page
111 and so far its been an easy read. It is written for people new to
role playing games, but it still is a quick enough read that it doesn't
matter if you are a seasoned gamer. Just skim a few of the pages. The
system is simple yet fun. The hardest part is to get out of the
deadlands mentality where you add the dice together for damage. In BNW
you always take best die even on damage.
I also was the first to notice a small mistake in the book that was
supposed to be taken care of in the last revision, but wasn't. In the
main book Yankee lives through WWII. Superior saves him at the last
second. There was another mistake, but I can't remember exactly what it
was. I am sure Matt will post it when he gets the chance, and he
mentioned it will be in the defiance book.  Blame it on Propaganda if
you will.(no gremlins to blame it on now)
Also on a completely different note is there going to be any more info
on Deltaball? It is a sport deltas play, but there is no info given that
I have seen which explains what it is like. I am hoping a future
supplement has more info on it, maybe the boxed set to be released at
next GenCon.

The game looks great and is going to be lots of fun. Thanks Matt for
making a great game. It was a pleasure meeting you and the rest of the
PEG people at the con. You guys are the greatest in the industry. Now if
I can just find the time to read all of the things I bought at GenCon.
