Opinions on the BX Compnaion

[bluskreem]

I've got to say I'm a big fan of Mr Beckers BX Companion. I'm in between D&D gamers right now so i haven't had anytime to use it (my biweekly Pleistocene homebrew and X-plorer games don't leave me much time for other games,) but after rereading it several times I have to consider it a worthy addition to the BX line.

I was wondering if anyone else has had a chance to use it in play yet?

Haven't yet had the opportunity to use it in play, but I love it to death.

I don't think I've actually looked at this, but it looks interesting from the link. Care to give us a more detailed review?

Here's a review from my first impressions:

I got this a couple of weeks ago, but my troublesome real life has gotten in the way of me sitting down and reading through it.

I've been trying to hold out for his deluxe boxed set but he's been completely mum on when we might see that, despite me posting queries on his blog several times, so I may just have to cave if he's got any left at the end of the month (and my car inspection doesn't put me in the poor house).

My copy just came today (haven't looked through it yet though). I hope to have a review up in a few days

But is it 3-hole punched?

Because it looks like the book I've been waiting for since '81.

It is not, but is formatted to leave room should you wish to punch it yourself.

I just posted a review over at my blog, for anyone interested:

I gave it 4.5/5. It's outstanding in almost every way.
