The Exalted game setting is a great universe for those who are fans of Anime, the Matrix Movies and other such super powered settings. I found the dice pool mechanics clunky at first--I started Role-playing with 2nd Ed. D & D in 1980--but have come to appreciate its flexibility; also I have discovered there is more suspense from rolling 20+ dice and counting my successes and a lucky roll absolutely destroying a foe--either in melee or social combat.
I got into the Exalted setting with 2nd. Ed., but decided to get the 1st. Ed. Books because I discovered that some material from the 1st. Ed. has not been converted to 2nd. Ed. stats and I want to be able to use those earlier materials.
