I'd just like to add something to the discussion,
as I've had a chat with our GM here in The Netherlands during a Pub-meet
(by the way do they organize such things also at other companies, some
meeting where the GMs will be as well?). He said that the modules can be
totally redesigned, if one is willing to put enough time in it.
"Unfortunately" he said "I don't have the time for that" so one can
expect the databases at PBM-Express to be identical to the MG ones.
However, NCOA items can differ from COA, as it's a redesign from MG with
a lot of faults corrected (too low prestige, too powerful weapons, too
weak monsters). Also some familiars have been replaced with different
ones (More interesting ones I might say). Basically I have seen quite a
bit of similarities between the toughness of NCOA and NIC, although NCOA
seems just a notch easier.

But obviously the guys in Austria put a lot of time in it (they
translated the whole thing) so one might expect quite some differences
too, as they were busy with it anyway.

One last thing, is PBM-Express the only place where they're running NCOA
or are there different places?
