All excellent comparisons MOB. Sounds like a larger industry (and life) trend. Thanks for the context.

Received my hardcopy today. I love Chaosium and everything they've done with 7e and am very grateful for the quality of product they almost always put out. But . . . In this case, I can't help feel disappointed in Arkham. Not in content, but in pricing and formatting. It is about the same size as Cults of Cthulhu and A Time to Harvest but 20% more in price. Arkham is $67 US after shipping. Even the Keeper's Rulebook, which is noticeably larger, costs less. And to top it off, the type size in Arkham seems to be smaller than any other 7e book I checked. Noticeably so compared the Keeper's Book. Obviously there are a lot of factors that go into pricing, but one can't help but compare. Of all the existing books redone for 7e, it is the least impressive. Sorry. So a welcome product, but overpriced and not without formatting disappointments. Not the end of the world of course . . .

Hopefully the start of a number of classic settings!

I'm looking to build about 8-10 Down Darker Trails PC pre-gens. Anyone else looking to do the same and want to make it a group effort? Maybe split the work into 3 PCs each? Looking for someone willing to go through the whole PC creation process largely by the book and use the nice fill-in pdfs. Answer here or PM me if interested. Thanks
