If you could only buy one single RPG this year, it'd have to be Weapons if the Gods. Now I know you're going to ask "Is it really THAT good?". My answer would have to be YES. If the rest of the book can manage to maintain the quality of this first chapter(and everything I've seen so far on the EOS Press boards and chat indicates it WILL) then we've got the "Best RPG of 2005" award right here, no doubt. The first chapter covers the Rules(besides Combat rules, you can download those from the EOS Press Homepage for free though), Character Generation(complete with descriptions of Attributes, Skills, Advantages and Disadvanatges) and a breakdown of the Social Organizations in Shen Zou.<br><br><b>LIKED</b>: Some of the artpieces are of outstanding quality(and the others are almost all well above average). The whole book is Full-Color(!). The Rules-System is innovative, detailed and still manages to be surprisingly fast. I can easily imagine someone picking this up, just for the Rules-System alone. I could go on and on about how good this book is, but do yourself a favor and buy it already so you can see for yourself ; )<br><br><b>DISLIKED</b>: The wait for the full Book is going to kill me.<br><br><b>QUALITY</b>: Excellent<br><br><b>VALUE</b>: Very Satisfied<br>
