My posse doesn't have this problem in Deadlands, but we just started
playing HoE. So, naturally, everyone wants to chekc out all the cool new
[to us at least] Arcane Backgrounds. Once somebody makes the final
payment on their farm, they'll more than likely play a mundane. If it
happens in your group everytime, well, it sounds more of having to
choose between an SA Assault Rifle or being able to toss Nuke at
critters. Maybe after everyone gets a chance to play all the different
AB's they want, they might start playing regular humans. Maybe after the
'Not a Pepper' Doomsayer gets hit with a hypo of the stuff he'll play an
average Joe ["Sorry, but we don't need two Templars in the group. They
usually work alone. But you can play a Squire if you want! ;]
