Hey guys, Just sending a quick hello to all you out Burning Wheel players and game masters out there. I just got the books I ordered via the website (Woot, Printing #750) and I'm looking forward to reading more about the game. A friend of mine introduced it to me and with one other we played thru the intro game and I though it was pretty interesting.
I'm also going to be heading to GenCon this year, I hear a Demo game of BW is going to be offered there so I'll most likely be looking forward to signing up for that as well.
The only thing I recall that was odd about the game, that i know my friend was going to mention here at some point, I'm not sure he did (I don't know his online handle/nickname) was that with the practice game, one of the characters he basicly though was unplayable, or more specificly, one of the weapons the character used, I think it was something akin to a blackjack, I'm not positive, he rambled on about it being more of an orcish weapon on a human character and it didn't play out right. I went with the human archer that game, I had fun, wiffed like mad, but had fun.
I'm looking forward to learning more about the system in the next few days as I read thru the book. Great system you have here though.
