How compatible are the RQ2 supplements? On a percentage scale. Has anyone said?

Probably 90%.

THis is encouraging, but as someone who missed RQ2 (I picked up the Moon Design reprints), what would you estimate the Avalon Hill RQ compatability to be? 80% or higher?

Probably about 90%, unless you really dig sorcery.

Dammit, Rick!  Can't you read the topic?  Hints, man... he asked for HINTS!  Here you are, just LAYING OUT the schedule for ANYONE to read...

Jeez, ya'd think that Chaosium values responsiveness or customer service or something.  <shakes head sadly>  I dunno what things are coming to these days...

 

(n.b. in case anyone fumbled their spot-tongue-in-cheek roll:  :P:DB)  = I was teasing / Rick's response was really good / Chaosium is Cool!)

Thank-you, that is really good news.

I like the idea of sorcery, and would love to have a working set of rules, but I agreed with those who said that the RQ3 rules didn't work.  I also liked Sandy Petersen's suggested revised rules, but they required far more set-up and planning for any NPC users, even if they were more viable for actual PCs...  As such, I think I can write RQ3 sorcery off as "not a great loss".
