Thank-you for the review, Tony.  It is very informative and helpful.

I have ordered Otherworld because of the way it goes back to early 1980s D&D which I enjoyed as a student.  It sounds to be spot on for what I want.
It should arrive in a day or two so I can see for myself.

Frostgrave has not tempted me yet but, next time I am in England, I will look for a copy in a bookshop.

Regards


Mick

If Olde Skool is what you're looking for then I would agree. Otherworlds would be better for you that Frostgrave.

Enjoy.

Very fair review Tony - many thanks. I was certainly aiming for that old school look and feel in the layout and design, so hope it hits the mark! Cheers Karl

Good review. I think I may buy a copy of the Otherworld rules as they sound like my kind of thing. While it is worthy of the praise it's getting, I am not sure Frostgrave is my cup of tea.

I'm a huge fan of the CD products and well, I own a TON of OW minis, so the marriage of these two great houses was a natural buy for me! :D

Eagerly (impatiently!) awaiting the arrival of my pre-order!
