     Those might help others in their gaming...

    4) hero conversion of pnp: I've read the posts.  Interesting comments.
       I only play hero don't GM it but it gives me some helpful advice
       for some character generation using the straight pnp system.

    5) New pnp game:  Hey larry!  Glad your here.  I'd be play to playtest
       the new game as I said in previous emails to ya :)

    6) peri script for towns?:  How do you use that?  Is there a freeware
       compiler or something?  I've actually never heard of peri and I'm
       a programmer! :)


    7) variant skill system interesting:  I above all like the new skills
       that were included.  Good work.

    8) Fascination comments versus control:  Well I can agree with the BMC
       change.  It seems my faerry likes to control everything in sight :)

        More stuff to come..

        I'll probably reply now indivdually to the posts..
