Thank you =)
And thanks for everyones advice..
I will start with Coming around the mountain, and then

This will be my 1st times with this rule set, having
run Gurps and D20 deadlands.
I love the Game, but i want to run it how it should be
run.

Thanks

"Fangs were flying, capes were torn Hell hath no fury like a Vampire scorned The number one rule in this game: 
Never call one by his real name Wigs were pulled, top hats were crushed By pointy boots in a rush And Boris at the bar orders a Bud and says, “It’s just another night at the Vampire Club."
-Voltaire
