I'm thinking more along the lines of rules conflicts, but there are also
still come conflicts resident from 1st/2nd Edition that people will have
questions about... Everything written in Chapters 1 - 4 of the Player's
Guide is written from the persective of a singular individual of course; but
those views are fairly close to how most immortals tend to think of such
subjects in this day and age. Of course there are things the player's
aren't told (since the chapters do state they are a bit of a basic primer
after all) that the Narrator's Guide should clear up. When I release the
rough for Chapter 2, I'm waiting for one question to come up concerning the
Dominions and bringing inhabitants to Earth. I have an answer for that and
I'm toying putting it in the chapter now or holding off till later...
