The idea of having a basic Glorantha Info-Pak is an excellent one.
Glorantha seems to have a widespread reputation as an impossibly
complicated world among gamers who've heard of it at all. Much as I hate
to say it, this Digest probably wouldn't alleviate that reputation for
newcomers to the game. :-)
Why not go a little further, though? In addition to basic
world-info, a bank of other useful material would encourage people to play
RQ. The first thing that leaps to my mind is the old RQ2 _Foes_.
That was a great book (do I have the title right?). Nothing but
computer-generated stats for hundreds and hundreds of NPCs, almost any
sort imaginable. I for one found it hugely helpful, and even used it with
RQ3.
I particularly liked the hamster with the special "very cuddly"
attack. :-)
I don't suppose that AH or anyone else is likely to ever re-issue
the book. Is there any reason not to make the material available by mail,
or even on the net?
