"Heroes of High Favor: Dwarves" was the first Badaxe Games book I've bought as it is their first product. The ideas inside seem to be solid, if perhaps a little on the bland side. For a first effort, I give them a big thumbs up and will certainly check out any future products.
As for "Hammer and Helm", I'm a big Green Ronin junkie, so it's only natural that I like it. I think it's a wonderful start to their new Races of Renown series. Now if they'd just hurry up and do one for halflings... (but, no, they've got to do one for Drow first <grumble>).

KnowTheToe said:In support of the dollar and having had the opportuity to view the Badaxe Games book I will definitely only purchase that one. I bought all of the race books in 2E and have read the Dragon Mag issues on races, I definitely do not need to spend $20 to learn about Dwarves, Elves etc.
I see the largest potential problem with them being balance, read the Sultans of Slam thread to see how many of the third party feats and powers can be abused in game breaking mechanics. Some of the applications in that thread are far fetched and would be hard to bring about, but some of them are not all that difficult.
