Has anyone out there been running Rolemaster [the fantasy role playing game
from Iron Crown Enterprises] for any length of time (say, 10 sessions or
more) ?
I've started running this, and would be interested to hear about other
people's experiences.  How do you find it compares to AD&D[TM] or RQ!, or
whatever else ou normally run ?  What do you do about one player-character
teaching another a skill, for example ?
Most important, what are the <<modules>> like ?
I have been able to get hold of --- with great difficulty --- Campaign Law
and the Iron Wind; is there any point buying Vog Mur ? Has anyone run
anything in any of these, and what were the main difficulties?

Sorry, lots of questions & low info content.  I really like many of the
ideas behind the game, although the layout could be better and an index
would have helped enormously.  The new edition is rumoured [white dwarf] to
be better presented, but it will almost certainly be far too expensive over
here in the UK; the 2nd Edn. is really a little too pricey already, as well
as being quite difficult to get hold of.

Please MAIL responses; if there are a lot of replies then I'll summarise.

Thanks (in advance)
