: As for the GURPS book (and I hope I'm not giving away
: a secret) Scott's opinion is something like this: The
: writers of the GURPS book forced Myth's _unique_
: views of magic and other cool phenomenea into the
: existing GURPS system. They made abbreviations in
: story and device for convenience alone. The reason
: it's not Canon in his eyes is that it is impure. I certainly
: mean no offense to the writer of that text, as he was
: just doing his best to fit a large thing into a single
: comprehensive book. Scott wants to stick as close as
: possible to the existing Myth story, and has talked
: about the original design documents from Bungie
: many times.
Okay, so you do have the original design docs. I was worried, but that pretty much quelss it. I disagree about GURPS though. While some things were done for the sake of making it fit into the GURPS system, like the odd stats all the units are given to make their point values come out right, most of it is just background for the GM to incorporate into the game as they wish. Does this mean GURPS is being taken as mostly right, with some inaccuracies? I hope it isn't being ignored, because if it is, the book is pretty much useless to a guy like me who doesn't play GURPS.
