I have just uploaded War of the Burning Sky 5e Player's Guide Preview! to the downloads area.
Happy <Insert Holiday Here>!
As you may know, War of the Burning Sky will soon be released for 5e. We will be targeting a roughly monthly release in PDF form (inluding printer-friendly letter and A4 formats for printing into a binder) and on Roll20. For those of you interested in this amazing adventure path from EN Publishing, think of this preview as an early holiday gift. The artwork, content, and cover layout are not final.
And for those of you really interested in the adventure path or who enjoy developing new rules material for 5e, this is also a bit of a public beta. I would appreciate any feedback you would have on the new rules material included in the campaign guide. This material will be with the players for ~2 years. So I would like to make an extra effort to ensure the material is not under- or over-powered and fits with the general way that 5e handles things. The preview will be up for about 1 week.
Finally, for those in the world that use A4 paper on a regular basis, what is the "most standard" version of a punch that would allow the printer-friendly versions to fit in a binder. In other words, what are the size of the holes, their number, and their spacing from each other and the edge of the page?
Thank you in advance for your feedback!
You can find the file here in the downloads section. Please use this thread for comments.
EDIT: I have incorporated several of the points of feedback. Highlights include:
* The Gate Pass Backgrounds have been stripped of everything except the features and are now called "Connections."
* The Wayfarer Cirqueliste is now a bard college.
* Several adjustments have been made to the language of the Commander archetype and Leader Feats.
* The like lightning, storm shield, and telekinetic thrust spells have been added.
* A lot of fluff from the 4e player's guide was added.
* The New Rules Material chapter was reorganized to follow the same order as the SRD (for the most part).
* Guild Sympathizer feature clarified to work with Wisdom (Perception) checks.
V3
* The leader feats have been folded into the Commander archetype.
* East and West Wind Style feats now only contain requirements for Sorcerer and Cleric and a cantrip respectively.
* Gabal's Superior Missile and War Mage specify that you use the Ready action for their special modes.
For those familiar with the War of the Burning Sky 3.5 and 4e covers, which style do you prefer between the 3.5 style, 4e style, and the full size artwork on the draft 5e version?
