What a mouthful, it?s only a torch I hear you saying. Well it may only be a torch to you, but to me it?s a ?lightweight, weatherproof, sports lantern with 5-year guarantee?. Coleman are a long established supplier of all things ?outdoorsy? in the US and Canada and have a very comprehensive website at, surprisingly, www.coleman.com.
There is a reason I bought this particular unit, apart from the fact it was on special at B&Q, but I?ll come to that later in the op.
General Description
This should really be called a lantern, rather than a torch, as it?s quite large. It?s nine inches long, and nearly five inches in diameter. The main body, lens cap, and lens are all plastic and appear fairly rugged. The manufacturer doesn?t give details of the plastic used ...
Advantages: A great inexpensive day out away from the crowds Disadvantages: May not be very accessible without a car
tradition we had our normal debate about where we were going to go, as usual nobody would make a decision, so we flicked through the Island Pocket Guide that we'd picked up on the car ferry and went flicked through the various attractions and places to visit. Finally we came across Colemans Farm, we first visited Colemans Farm last year whilst on holiday on the Island and we'd all very much enjoyed our day there so we decided to go back again.

Advantages: Both the GM and the players will benefit from the book Disadvantages: Power gamers can abuse the information in the Companion
The Earthdawn Companion is a valuable resource for all Earthdawn fans. Why? Because if you are a GM then the companion will enable you to expand your games to new levels. It provides you with the rules you need to create your hideous monsters and horrors, establish intense ship battles, bring Questors and Lightbearers into your plot and various other useful rules and information to flesh out your game.
But players will also find the Companion useful. It will enable you to advance your character up to 15th Circle. You can now become one of the powerful Questors or mighty Lightbearers. Magic of supreme power is now at your fingertips from all the magic wielding disciplines. New Talents are described and even two new disciplines are introduced: the Air Sailor and the Scout.
Perhaps the only disadvantage from the book is the capacity ...
