Some people think this booklets are very small and don't have enough juice. But i have read books from White Wolf at $15 or more and just got a few facts and nothing else. This booklets are at a great price and cover enough of the theme to start your head rolling with the ideas. This can be caracterized between two kind of gamers: The Gerber gamers who just want every small detail about the archvillain so they do not have to work at all, and the microwave gamer who gets the bag with the ingredients and a few instructions but all is in your hands. This book is good for the latest and not for the first. The XWF is the eXtreme Wrestling Federation, in the year 2006 people don't bother about puny human wrestlers bahing their heads with chairs and stuff. No, they want superpowered beings throwing cars and spitting plasma at their enemies all in the blink of an eye. It may sound cheap but then you don't enjoy the WWF at all and then you may prefer any other book of the system, anyway at less than five bucks you can take the risk and find out about the idols, the movers and the secrets behind this mega million dollar business. I did and i found it good enough to be tried once, or at least use it as a support history.

This book is for any of you Aberrant fans. It's quite short but well worth the price. Words of Advice : Enjoy

The XWF is a Wrestling Federation in the Abberant game world. This book has information on it incase one of your characters ever wants to join up. Certainly not important for running the game, it does add flavor and something new for characters to try. Also good is the low price.

Hey, kids, wanna see someone get "Cored?" Aberrant: XWF brings combat to the world of 2008, where Novas duke it out for fame and money. The book is a step in the right direction. However, it fails to fully bring us the Nova shoot fighting experience. A 25 page book just isn't enough to do justice. The book isn't a complete waste; after all, there is some detail in the history, and we meet some of the major players in the XWF. There is a dictionary for slang, which is useful if you are not an avid wrestling fan, and listings of the champions in each division. However, there isn't a whole lot to wrap your head around. Some plot hooks would have been nice, perhaps some sample characters, a story, or a listing of more of the competitors. this would not be the first book I would reccommend to someone. If you want a good Aberrant supplement, there are a few out there and more are in the works. If you really want to run a game that involves the XWF, it's worth a read, but don't expect miracles.
