Okay just got the time to start catching up. Anyhow you guys did a good deep dive into the system, it was very interesting to see the motives that went behind certain things. Also cool to see what other directions Matthew wants to take TCFBTS, Ghost Busters sound sweet. In any case here's a question that should be good for thought that relates to this, if you guys could convert any of the other Onyx Path games(both whole franchises and individual splats in cases of WoD/CofD) to follow the storypath system, which one do you guys think would be the easiest conversion, what would be the hardest, and what would you actually be interested seeing it lay down in that system. Well other then that, on to the newest pod
