This is an excellent supplement for any White Wolf and Vampire fan and it signals a trend the CCP-owned company has been taking lately of giving the fans the tools they want to play the game they want, whether the interest lies in the old or new version of the World of Darkness. After all, nearly all Vampire: the Masquerade titles are currently in print if you count the digital versions.

Here you have total freedom to plug-and-play game elements from Masquerade into Requiem, or visa versa to suit your tastes. I prefer the streamlined rules, claustrophobic lack of world-spanning organizations, and more versatile options of Requiem but I really miss playing Tremere. Now I am given enumerated options on how to include them and the discipline of Thaumaturgy using the current rules system in an officially published supplement. Likewise I think Masquerade would be so much more fun to play if I could add in the Meket, the revised version of Nosferatu, and the various political factions of Requiem. I can do that now without any arguments over rules.

If you want the freedom to play the vampire you want to play, or the ghouls who love them this is a wonderful collection for your library at a very fine price point. I hope they produce more of them for the other game lines. For example Geist/Wraith translation document would be a fine way to open up the limited library of the former while attracting a fresh audience to the latter. ( )
