[BNW] Review of Books, Some Plot Guesses, and a Request [MATT]

[Ivan Ironsword <nbouqu1@gl.umbc.edu>]

Okay, I just finally caught up on my reading for BNW (Delta Prime and
Barginers). I loved both books, but I have one problem still with the
Barginers.

I have never liked the requirement that a totem be in the Barginer's
hand in order to use. I have always seen the Barginers as Dr. Strange,
or a mage (which is what they are, really). To me allowing them to have
totems as rings, amulets, bracers, etc that only need to be touched
makes sense. Matt, care to comment?

The request. Would it be possible to have AEG produce some posters, to
be given away at game stores, of Superior pointing, and saying Register
Now! Its the law! With space for time and location of a BNW Game
underneath?

Okay, that should be enough room.

The tone of Barginers is that Delta powers are coming from the Forces of
Heaven and Hell, perhaps trying to fight a war by proxy? Furthermore,
and I have always suspected this, Alphas seemed to be linked to
Superior, at least as a source for their power. When he disappeared,
Alpha Powers became too unstable again, perhaps a barginer or covenant,
or even a rouge Angel was involved in pushing Sparky into Alphahood.
Matt, how far off am I?
