Got mine today, from the local gaming shop. Extremely impressed with what I have seen so far - no, I did not manage to read the entire thing in an afternoon. :)

I've been skim reading through it. Its really nice and hefty.

I'm a little sad there is no "headology" skill.

I love the book!

Also, the damage scale is changed compared to 4th edition. The revised scale is strangely identical to the scale I found here on the forums... =)

I'm not seeing any difference at all between the Basic Set and Discworld's table of ST damage.

Sorry for being unclear. Swing and Thrust damage as function of ST, for values above 20. The table is identical up to 20.

Oh, yeah, that. (I'd actually forgotten that happened.) Changed for simplicity and consistency, and okay'd by the line editor because this is powered by GURPS and he doesn't find it objectionable.
