GREAT! book I ever read
The book's clear instructions and color photographs are excellent. However, procedures used are extremely time-consuming and require a lot of hands-on work. Basically, they're industrial techniques adapted for home use. Entirely different from making cold process bar soaps. Even for experienced hot process soap makers, at least 3-4 hours are needed to complete the initial phase. In the recipes, you have to be comfortable with using solvents and thickeners. Neutralizing and sequestering agents too. pH control and preservatives can be significant issues as well. Aside from that, you won't find a better consumer-level book on this interesting subject. GREAT book!

One step forward, two steps back
Having really enjoyed the earlier Marvel Super Hero Role-playing Game I was quite interested in its successor. However, I was disappointed for the money I spent on it. This game could be nice for a group of players with little experience with role-playing games and who want playability above all. If you are familiar with the old game or a die-hard role-player you will find the system annoying. I tried to sell my friends on trying the "new thing" and card based system left us cold.
Hey there fellow true believers!
The Marvel Super Heroes Adventure game is part of TSR's Saga system, which is touted as being a diceless RPG. "DICELESS! ," you cry....yep, you heard me right, it's uses a special variant form of playing cards. I guess this is the Magic(tm) effect, in that all new games must be ground breaking and innovative, i.e. use some form of cards. Fortunately, this isn't always a bad thing, as it fits the nature of this product. TSR's old Marvel game was just a variant of it's Gamma World system, and it was an awkward fit at best. The Saga system seems to be a good match, as it provides for fast and fun play, more of a beer and pretzels RPG (just keep the beer away from the cards, please). Don't expect volumes of tables and modifyer charts, 'cause this is not a game for rule-lawyering; Characters only have four main attributes, experience is determined by the number of cards you are allowed to hold in your hand, and most everything based upon the Narrator's (aka DM) judgement calls. My only major quibble is how little you get with this boxed set: The rule book, a quite slim colection of stats for some major Marvel heroes and villains, and the deck of cards. It would have been nice to have a larger collection of stats, but at least those included are the classic versions of Marvel favorites, except for Wolverine, who is presented in his more current non-adamantium form. Overall, this is a nice little game, and is great for those gamers looking for a light bit of gaming, and for those new to the field who would like an introduction to the new world of non-traditional RPGs. Now, if you pardon me, It's clobberin' time....
New Marvel System Best Ever
I was skeptical about the new system, being a big fan of the older version. After trying the new Marvel system I was thrilled with it! I've yet to find a system so simple, and yet so much fun to play. My group won't go back to the old system! If you haven't tried this game yet don't hesitate you won't be sorry! If you like this system which stresses "Role Playing" over "Roll Playing" Try WotC/TSR's Dragonlance 5th Age game as well. The mechanics are similar and just as fun! After playing this game, your dice may well get very dusty!! Enjoy!
