That’s cool Nathan! I’m glad you’re new to this game and you’ll finally be able to pick up a copy. That’s what this edition seems to be for me.
As for modules, has SJ mentioned them yet? I know he’s concentrating on getting the rules out first, but I wonder what will happen down the line. Especially with Dark City Games excellent modules already available. I just hope they don’t go all GURPS on this in the future with piled on additional supplements. From what I gather they won’t since they keep talking about the simplicity of the system. Time will tell on this aspect I guess.
I certainly can't tell anyone else where they should spend their money. I confess, though, that I am not an old-timer. I have acquired a few of the modules, but I have never had a physical, paper copy of the rulebooks.
So I'm pretty stoked about the KS. I'd certainly suggest any fans of the game, even if they aren't sold on the idea of having a "spare" or shinier copy, with new and possibly fancier components, should consider trying to sell any younger gamers of their acquaintance on the KS. It's likely to lead to the publication of new modules and such, which may benefit you even if you already own everything from the old days, and in triplicate.
To each his own, but given what I put into getting the entire set of Metagaming games, I'm happy to splurge a bit and get the big box.
I'm also thrilled that SJ will make some money off his games after all these years.
