I was rather pleased to open these up and find such wonderful artwork. They are a fantastic addition to my campaign tools, and my players get a kick out of them.
I second Mr. Broadhurst recommendation that a "Doomed" card be added. It's a favorite condition of my groups cleric, and mine as well when I get out from behind the screen.
Gatecrashing was the one supplement for Eclipse Phase that I was looking forward to before I knew it was going to be made. I was not disappointed. Each chapter is well written and very immersive, with the first three chapters actually making me forget I was reading a book and trying to touch the hyperlinks in the text for more information. That feeling is worth the money I paid for this book, and the hallmark of good design in my opinion.
I bought this desk because I wanted something for my PFRPG campaign that was similar to the IMHO epic critical tables from Dark Heresy. I have not been disappointed. Both my players and I enjoy the effects because they provide that extra dimension of game effect that improves immersion into their characters and adventures.
Now, to qualify, I only let the plot NPCs draw from this deck and my players, so the characters rarely suffer effects and when they do, it's memorable.
I've been using this book for a couple years now, and it is one of the best resources for memorable magic weapons I have ever had the honor to read. I use a few weapons every campaign arc, and I have yet to reuse a single weapon. A great work by SKR.
