Hi all,

Personally, I've never had a problem with a company producing endless
supplements to their game -- I've never felt constrained to buy anything
beyond the core rules of a system. Why people get so up in arms whenever
"The Company that Must Not Be Named" issues yet another Complete "______'s"
Handbook is beyond me. Now, if it's the *quality* of the supplement that
gets them riled......;)

That said, I still don't see a real need to have a follow-on RQ optional
rules book. Do we really have that many rules that we could fill a
standard-sized (whatever that is) book? And, would enough people buy such
a book to make it commercially worthwhile to AH? I tend to doubt it. I have
to agree with Curtis on this one: Gurps does a good job at presenting basic
and advanced systems in one book. I think we could do the same thing with
RQ and have a fine product.
