A better binding.
I think we can all safely say that we would like to see rules
clarifications, don't be afraid to come out and say once and for all "Yes
you can/can't ground through quickened spells." You know what most of the
others are so I won't list them all.
Clarify spirits and their abilities.
If you put a list of spells in it...please list them all and put all of the
pertinent info on the table not just some of it. If we are using a table
to select spells tell us ALL of it. (Drain, Type, Catagory, Duration,
Damage, Range, Area of effect)
Same goes for gear and such...I find it annoying that they have sourcebook
updates in the back of the SRII book with gear and weapons that do not show
up in the normal gear section. It means I have to flip back and forth
between the two even if i'm only playing with the BBB (Big Black Book)
Compile contacts and archtypes together from other sources.
Did I mention the binding?
I would like to see a bunch of tables in the back of the book where they
will be easy to look up, as opposed to spread throughout. FASA has been
getting better about this in recent books, but still I find that some
tables are incomplete.
Nega-mages would be cool to put in there...I am pretty sure that most all
of us have house rules for them, but I don't recall anything official about
it. (I'll admit however that it does all tend to blur at times.)
How about a REALLY good binding.
Most of all, don't be afraid to make the tough calls. Put your collective
FASA feet down, we love SR already if we don't like a rule we won't use it,
but we will still love the system.
Okay, maybe this is the most of all...put some guy in there with a T-shirt
on that says "I hate the IE." and then sign it -ShadowRN. =)
