Hurray for reading a book through...

I've just noticed there's no section on Bionics. Rats!

It's not a big problems because I can repurpose what is in the Bionics supplement. :)

God yeah. Although I will only unleash her onto it once it's been through you chaps. Some of the English is a bit ropey in places and although I can sweep up some of it, there will be a lot left that needs doing.

I'm looking forward to reading it. How did this compare with writing your PhD thesis?

Ooooh, that's an odd question. The thesis was more difficult because I had no idea what it was the examiners wanted. So I would create something and they would shake their heads. That went on for ages. I had to please two people and two people alone, once they were happy I could graduate.

With Icar, I think I have a pretty good idea what makes a good roleplaying game. Certainly a playable one. I know what it is I am trying to achieve and the only person I'm really writing it for is me. Of course, I do hope other people will play it and I am thrilled when people do but I am my own examiner.
