Hi Crash,

DIfferent strokes for different folks. Actually, I liked Something About a Sword too, but it's rated as one of the worst adventures we've ever done by most of our fans. My Leftovers adventure/Dime Novel also got a 0 out of 5 in a major French magazine--the same week I won an Origins Award for it.

So all that said, I like the Unity. I think it kicks butt, and it's the highest-selling HOE product we've ever done besides the core books. Is it a lot of combat. Sure was intended to be, but if that's not what your group likes, you can certainly try to outsmart the bad guys in some of the encounters instead of straight out fighting them. That's *your* choice. Was it linear? Absolutely. You try tying up a 3 year storyline while starting another one (A must lead to B must lead to C) without being linear.

So I love the Unity and am very proud of it. Sorry if you didn't. Really, but it's a you can't please all of the people all of the time kinda thing. I didn't think Crouching Tiger, HIdden Dragon was all that good, but everyone else loved it. Go figger.
