Subject: Popularity in Germany

In Germany ShadowRun is (according to a recent poll) the second most
popular rpg in Germany. The most popular rpg is #Das Schwarze Auge#
(The Black Eye) which is a purely german RPG. German authors, german
producers, source books and adventures are published in german. Maybe
some of you already herad of it, because they made a computer rpg around
it and that game was quite popular in the states. (At least that's what
I was told.) And they say they want to translate it and publish the rpg
in English.
Nearly everyone knows DSA here, I guess it is as well known as AD&D in
the english speaking world. It is a Fantasy rpg that plays in the world
of "Aventurien", but I personally don't know very much about DSA, I rather
stick to SR and ED. Other peope are much more competent on DSA than me.
