Trigun D20

Rating:
Summary: Lame if you've seen the series
Review: I'll admit to not having played BESM yet, but the system intrigues me, especially the d20 variant. That said, I paged through this book at my local borders and was incredibly dissappointed. 80% of the book is nothing but a synopsis of the anime series. It focuses entirely on the anime and doesn't include anything from the manga. I can bet money that the only people interested in Role-Playing in the Tri-gun universe are folks that have watched the anime, read the manga and are true fans. This book will tell these people nothing they don't know already. It only serves as a very nice reference and episode synopsis which I will admit is useful for GMs, especially for details like the more minor characters in the series, which is why it gets at least 2 stars. However, almost no game content is in the book and if you really want to role-play Trigun, you're better off buying the BESM d20 book and using your episodes and manga as reference material. At the very least they could have included an adventure module to give novice GMs a push. Nice try, but not enough to warrant the price by any means.

Summary: Somewhat Dissapointing...
Review: This book is mainly a review of what occurred in the anime series, And Gives little for a campaign, other than setting, and thrown in stats for the main characters. If you do plan to buy this though, make sure you already own the Big Eyes Small Mouth book(s)
