They are releasing this again for a limited time for the Christmas Season. I ordered it. Is it any good?

It is INCREDIBLY dated but I enjoyed reading it a few years ago and I did mine it for several ideas. I think if you enjoy BTS and don't mind that it is old rules it is well worth the purchase.

I pretty much get the books to mine them for ideas myself.

Its one of my personal favorite books (the included tabloid paper alone is worth the cost). Even when you consider the dated materials (that can be easily modified/updated), its a great resource.

P.S. Future sourcebooks and BTS projects of mine WILL reference this book, so its a good idea to have a copy. :)

Perhaps. New faces mixing in with old, some retired, one is missing... all that good stuff. :)

It is something to have if you are a collector that have to complete the set.
May you be blessed with the ability to change course when you are off the mark.
Each question should be give the canon answer 1st, then you can proclaim your house rules.

Nope, I just look for ideas for my games in all the settings that are compatible with Heroes Unlimited. Hopefully this has monsters and adventure ideas for my games.
