the point is that you didnt tell them what your interpretation was: you
assumed one thing, they assumed another. if you have to make up stuff thats
what is going to happen, unless you are ghoing to rewrite the whole darn
book.

anyway were getting off the point. my point is that when you buy a
roleplaying book you expect there to be enough background to play the danr
thing. thats what your realy paying for these days. IMHO BNW could do with a
LOT more detail in its background section

what if you woke up after being kidnapped surrounded by some 'frendly'
deltas who were all in the same situation as you the pcs (kidnapperas) are
among them somwhere... but you will never know that peice of informtion
mulder. im sure my PCs could think up all sorts of invetive tricks. but
again beside the point
