8 / 10paul_mitchenerA very good resource for Discworld games- it does an excellent job of showing how Discworld can be used for adventures.
7 / 10owe for the fleshNot as essential as the original, but a useful resource nonetheless.
6 / 10DrFaustI've found the character templates to be the most useful portion of the book. They're a curious example of fusing the typical activities of player characters with the conventions and tropes of the Discworld.
6 / 10JDCorleyNot as good as the main book but still pretty okay. Again, not how I would approach Prachettian material.

Rating User Summary
4 + 3Robert A. RodgerGURPS Discworld Also. While a must have for fans and completists, Discworld Also will only be of use to GM's running certain styles of certain campaigns.
5 + 5Phil MastersGURPS Discworld Also. Extends the idea of Discworld roleplaying by providing both an enlarged toolkit and specific examples. And it's got jokes.

Ratings Explanation

The following components make up a rating:

Ratings. The ratings that users enter into this index are each averaged into the final rating with a weight of between 0 and 4, with weight based on trust algorithms.

Reviews. Each review is averaged into the final rating with a weight of 8. Sometimes reviews can skew high, but they also display fan interest (or disdain) in a product.

Content. The average rating of each content--before its own bayesian weight is inserted--is averaged into the final rating. The weight of a content is equal to its own weight divided by the number of contents, and divided again if it only appears in a fraction of editions.

Bayesian Weight. A rating of 5.00 is inserted into the final rating with a weight of 35. This is an arbitrary weighting of the average rating that keeps things toward the center until they're better rated.
