What did you think of Desolation: Survivors? (Full disclosure: I am the aforementioned Mark Simmons).

[jkahane]

I was wondering whether that was you, Mark. :)

Out of curiousity, what bits of the book did you write?

Desolation: Survivors was really an interesting book, and a good supplement for the game. I love the material on the three Oruskan races (orcs, kobolds, and goblins), as it really added so much depth to them and this is a good thing for the game

I wrote two of the communities: the Oruskan community that is digging away to release their god and Emerald, the community powered by an earthquake-causing gnomish relic.

Ah, those were your contributions to the cause? Lovely stuff, especially the Community of Emerald. That was good stuff. :)
