[QUOTE="FitzTheRuke, post: 7175184, member: 59816"] While I'm okay with you reviewing the Downtime rules so you've got an idea what kind of thing to think of - I don't want you to get [i]too[/i] hung up on the numbers. I will use those rules as a guideline when making my rulings, but I won't be held to the letter-of-the-law (not the least of the reasons being that the UA is just playtest material and probably isn't accurate anyway.) What I'm trying to say is: Don't change what you want to do because the rules there make it an unattractive choice. If you want to do it, do it. I will find a way to make it work. Bad rolls and things like that should just make it interesting, not horrible. Pick what you want to do and do it. If you have a particular aversion based on the rules, feel free to let me know why, and I will address it. I [i]will[/i] add, however, that the 500gp cost of "Carousing with Nobility" sounds to me like "Throwing an Elaborate Party" - probably beyond the means of a beginning character. I will talk more about it when I've had the chance to review all the existing rules. I've been so busy running games! (And running a comic store, two kids off school bugging my wife, teaching martial arts classes...) [/QUOTE]
