As a graphic artist, I think the tables are mediocre (except most of the equipment charts, which lean toward bad). On the other hand, as someone who has trouble reading type set in certain color combinations, I completely understand that this can be a tough one.
Game books are essentially...
To quote the book:
"The Red Star Campaign Setting does not use the normal pattern of basic and advanced classes. Characters in the Red Star universe usually have strong identities specific to the setting. Given there are no penalties for multiclassing, it should be possible to create any...
The Red Star Campaign Setting is a good-lookin' book (I have a copy in my fat li'l fingers here.) Hardback, glossy pages, full color, nice art, and so on. On a skimming pass, I've spotted a few minor errors in its pages, but it looks promising all the same. I'll be reviewing it "for real" soon...

I just wanted to take a moment to get all touchy-feely about something important to me. You see, my life's been pretty good lately. I got married a year ago, moved across the country, and I started doing freelance editing for Wizards of the Coast. I couldn't have pulled off this...
The professional adventurer thing is easy, and it works. I’ve had whole campaigns based around the professional explorer types. One rumor, a scrap of a map, and off they go. The thing is, professional adventurers aren’t the same thing as heroes, though the two needn’t be separate entities...
Red Spire Press has a release now, and I have a review for that release. Can somebody place Dark Legacies Player's Guide in the review pulldown for me? While you're at it, you may as well note the release on the manufacturer's list. (No, I'm not affiliated with Red Spire.)
Much appreciated.

Dark Legacies Player's Guide is the first book in a new d20 fantasy campaign setting by Red Spire Press. Between the color, perfectbound covers lay 144 black-and-white pages, only one of which is used for the OGL. Notably, a full-color map of the world, by Skeleton Key's Ed...
