Okay, I just got the Oakling and uh.. Frog guys... My ONLY complaint is the lack of color coding for the powers, items, or monsters.

Using the right colors would make it SO MUCH easier... any chance of getting them updated so the colors match the core books? Most books, you can tell whether it's an encounter power or daily just by the color of the box. You can tell a monster spot on. If there's a magic item, the yellow box gives it away. Please consider this...


Thanks
Chris

The original thinking was 1) give a certain universal look to our products 2) the color coding seemed redundant, and 3) some of the colors we found to be unappealing. Still, we are considering adjusting the table colors for the next batch...and perhaps an update to this batch. Thank you for your input!

Thanks for the consideration. I put my pdfs in binders. I have one tab just for PC races. While your product stands out, it's not in a good way in my binder... I'll hold off on printing for now.


Thanks
Chris

More raining on your parade

Should Boggle Dodge really be an immediate reaction as opposed to an immediate interrupt? I mean, on one hand making it an interrupt would provide a nice near-immunity to many area attacks.

But on the other, as an immediate reaction, you leap out of the area of effect *after* it's resolved - which, unless it creates damaging terrain or some such lingering ill effect, means you just get to move after getting set on fire, basically. Not much of a dodge.

Yes, immediate interrupt. Tis ok, we were fixing that for the next update (coming soon). We also compromised on the color coding thing with colored symbols. Happy holidays.

While it may seem like whining and complaining, listening to the customer base is key in this industry.


Thanks
Chris

Awesome! I'm seriously considering these for my players. However, as others have stated, I may wait for the bundle. Holiday spending taking its toll and all

Of course, and we take everything our customers say very seriously. In fact, we are working on a product-wide update that resolves the color-coding issue as well as a lot of other suggestions that our customers have given us. We want to make the best product we can! The update will likely be very soon.

Thanks again!

Will you announce when you've updated product? I saw you say you are fixing at least one thing? If you re-post on rpgnow, and let us know, we can download the updated copy, correct?

Yes, I will send out an email to all customers letting them know that the product is updated. This will likely be tomorrow evening (Dec 26)-- if all goes according to plan.

Look for the entobian this weekend as well!

Thanks,
