I like the new World of Darkness stuff, especially the core "blue book" stuff. The most spectacular surprise has been Werewolf. I hated Apocalypse, but Forsaken has a lot of good stuff to like; Changeling likewise. The couple of Changeling books I've read have done a bang-up job of keeping the horror nice and personal.

South Dakota, you say? Does the phrase "Section O" mean anything to you?

To jump back for a moment, something I like about Spycraft is the potential for quick death - critical hits don't multiply damage; instead, the damage is applied directly to the character's Wound Point total, which is the fatal damage type. Wounds are based on the Constitution score, so when you've got handguns banging out 1d12 and assault rifles in the 4d4 and higher range, characters can buy the farm if the other guy's good and/or lucky.

I try to avoid anyone whose idea of fun in gaming is wrecking somebody else's fun. Pedantry gets my goat, too.
