I am not a native speaker of French, but I can read and translate it quite well, in my humble opinion of course. I would be happy to do some translating for a good cause!

Gee, I thought A&E had died a long time ago. Not much help, I know...

Well, if you dig back into Volume 1 of the Digest, you'll find some guidelines I whipped up for Alchemy under RQIII. They essentially follow the pattern of RQII Alchemy, which means that they should fit well with the RQ system, even if they don't model how alchemy "actually" works.
