I doubt the system would be any harder for me to get my group to buy in to than Earthdawn's, hehe.

So, I have a chance to pick up basically every 1st and 2nd edition Fading Suns book at about $3 each. I've been eyeing the game for a while, and while it looks interesting, I have to admit that I know little about it. But with this opportunity, I figure now's the time to load up - buy now, ask quest...
