Yes, of course ( or so I imagine - we are currently playing the whole damn
story ). Let me explain : as the original discussion was about Grimoire II,
or 2nd Ed Grimoire, I thought that Harlequin II was meant for 2nd Ed. Harlequin,
which I thought was utterly ridiculous. But another campaign following that one,
yes, one thousand times yes ! Perhaps a little trip to near orbit this time ?

Seriously speaking, Harlequin is the best idea FASA has published so far. I'm
waiting for another story like that !

Hoi Kiddies!
Yeah, Harlequin was a darn good idea, but they choked on the
execution. There are small chunks missing from here and there in the story
(literally where a sentence is not finished bcause it went to the next page
and the expected next page was not there) and there was a least one case
where they had a character in two spots at once. If they are going to do
something like that again, I want a better editor or quality control! Damn
that was a bitch to GM!
