In Nomine
In Nomine Game Masters Guide *OP
It can be daunting - as an In Nomine Game Master, you must create the world, the setting, the plots, the people . . . you not only play God, but Lucifer and all the other Superiors, Archangels and Demon Princes alike.
The Game Master's Guide will help you do all that, as well as:
* Choose how light or dark, gray or stark your campaign is.
* Fit real-world religion into your In Nomine universe.
* Discover the extent - and limitations - of the power of Superiors, and how to handle confrontations with them.
* Pick alternate rules that strengthen or weaken humanity, celestials, and ethereals.
* Tailor your game to be as serious, satirical, or downright silly as you want it to be!
An invaluable In Nomine resource for inexperienced GMs and old hands alike, the Game Master's Guide reveals the inner workings of the universe, how you can change them, and why you might want to do so.
And the players might like to sneak a peek at it too!

About the author
David Edelstein
20 books405 followersI was the author and editor of a lot of supplements for the
In Nomine
roleplaying game, by Steve Jackson Games. That's pretty much my only claim to fame, but I guess it makes me a "published author."
You can find my In Nomine page at the "official website" link above. And yes, it really has been five years since I've updated it.
My Ratings
A lot of my ratings are for books I read a long time ago, and my memory is hazy on some of them. I'd likely rate many of them differently if I reread them today.

I wrote it, so of course I think it's good. I'll admit it's more of a "meaty" supplement that got into the details of the workings of the world and the game mechanics, and in that sense, failed to convey the sense of wonder and the satirical flavor of the setting. It's a great addition for a campaign, but GMs need to bring their own inspiration and imagination to the table.
