aw, come on, Wraith was not that bad.  It was sure deeper then a lot of WoD 
games.

Still, a game with PC Ghosts needs not be _anything_ like Wraith.   Wraith 
took Ghosts in an interesting new direction (albeit not one I was crazy 
about).  But a game with Ghost PCs need not be anything like Wraith.  Given 
the metaphysic of Deadlands, it would surly be different.

a PC Ghost would be tough to do.  I'd LOVE to be able to do it (and really 
looked forward to Wraith for a whole year believing WW had a compatible 
system), but it would be extremely difficult.  Ghosts are, by nature, often 
invisible and intangible.  this makes them tough already.

was I, by chance, redundant enough?
