It is a great article, Jasper.(Though I am using translation sites to read it.)  Also, somebody picked up BtI today based on reading it. Thanks again! : )   

best,

BtI was also game of the month on the GRoG : http://www.roliste.com/jeuxdumois.jsp and therefore eligible for the GRoG d'Or 2006 : http://www.roliste.com/grogdor_us.jsp at the side of Midnight, Shadowrun, Qin, etc.

:)
I wonder if this opened the heart of France ?

Hey greuh,

Yes, it was a lovely surprise to be chosen as the Game of the Month in Feb last year. Appropriately enough, I suppose. : ) There is a nice review of BtI there as well. GROG is an excellent gaming site. Have you played Cops which won the Grog D'Or 06?

best,
Emily

Yep, I do GM cops on a regular basis. I like it, but the fluff come in a really large quantity. 14 books of 128-180 pages each, with big scenarios and the emphasis on a specific theme. It is a closed line of books (like Orpheus), and the last one should come out this year.

I'd be happy to answer your questions about it.
I use Breaking the ice as a game in the game to solve "the problem" when players try to get out with a NPC. It does not take too much on the other game and is really well done and useful for that ! ;)

And now for a french AP!

The story about a fleeing beaten wife and a decadent aristocratic lesbian. Lots of drinking and dancing, too much for the straight lady...
