Good layout, fun sidebars, great feel for the world, OK game system explanations.

Having gone through the first session of setting up for a campaign, I get where a lot of the explanations were trying to take us, but it was seriously good to have had one of the people who worked on the RPG in the group to help explain things.

That said, the process for building the city and characters can bring a really great sense of camaraderie and be a lot of fun. It is NOT a good system for starting a campaign with people who are new to a city and each other, as that goes against the purpose of the system. Just things to keep in mind when designing your campaign.

Darn book looks good. I have read through it and it looks to be a good rpg. I have not played any fate system, but this looks to be a good launching point. except for a small flaw in some of the flavor text (dealing with the correct vampire court.) This book is spot on. I would recommend anyone interested to pick it up.

Your story is book one of the Dresden Files RPG. It contains all the info you will need to create great characters, run the game and bring it all together using the excellent FATE system. The book is laid out well and is a full color delight to the eyes. One of my favorite aspects of the book is the notes that are scribbled throughout the book by 'Mr. Dresden' himself. It really gives the book alot of character. The magic system straight forward and does not bog down the game. The Authors and developers have done a great job presenting the 'Dresdenverse' so that you can catch up on all things Dresden with no problem.

While it is clear to see that this book (and it's companion "Our World") is a work of love, I am overwhelmed and disappointed at the same time.

OVerwhelmed by the huge amount of options covered within in the rules, disappointed because it attaches some many details to the FATE engine that it really drags it down.

What is the benefit of the FATE system? A rules light, easy to grasp game engine that fosters player imagination and allows you to "quick start" a new game easily.

What happens if you link it with dozens of templates, stunts, powers etc.? It becomes just another heavy tome of rules. (Almost feels like HEROS, GURPSs or similar "take 10 days just to figure out how to build your character" systems).
