Hi all,
My FLGS had an inventory day sale. Everything was 50% until they inventoried it (Virginia taxes weird, so it was in their interest to sell things before they "counted" them on January 1). I got there just before the RPGs were done (but well after GW stuff in general... Poo on them). So I picked up a copy of RT, the RT GM kit, the WHfantasy box (the $100 jobby) and the Adventurer's tool kit.
My long time gaming buddy (best friend from HS) is looking to run a WHFR game, so I thought I'd pick up the rules while they were cheap and see about learning it. I havn't cracked the set yet, and I wanted to know before I delved to deeply into it, how similar are the rule sets for each version of the games? The game store owner said that DH and RT were the same, but with different points of view, but she wasn't sure how different the rules were for the WH box set. Following reviews, I would say very different, but I wanted to find out from those that might have played.
Thanks for your time.
