Thank you for covering this book, Sparky. Historical fantasy is perhaps one of the rarest tabletop RPG genres, particularly for 5e. I'm looking forward to the Ben Franklin: Banshee Slayer expansion.

Oh, I still got a lot of content left to cover, so buckle up!

The return to SpringBog marks a dramatic increase in the stakes of the campaign: due to Kumuhea’s tunnel network beneath it the entire island is going to sink. This is inevitable, and sensing weakness the Star Breather sent out an ecliptic army to kill and take back as many mirescales as...

I should’ve done this in an earlier post, but I’ll put up a two-page map spread of the Isles of Manaki. There is no distance measurement provided, with the rationale given that the DM should have PCs sail at the speed of plot between areas. For Week 8, we have not one, but three potential areas...

Important Note: I should’ve addressed this in the prior post, but Captain Keelhaul’s brother leaves the PCs as soon they rescue the undead pirate, forcing them to swim back to shore without a boat. Anson Drahl is too afraid to face him at the moment, as Keelhaul would surely kill him upon...

This is what the book says on the matter: To give some perspective on this as a US citizen but who is not Indigenous, there's been an ongoing problem of non-Native people incorporating aspects of culture and spiritual traditions without consultation from the original practitioners to do so in...

No new entries, but Koboa got featured as an article in Forbes, complete with an interview with its lead designer!

So this part of the review’s going to be a tad unconventional. Chapter 4 gives the overview of the adventure in broad strokes, separated by weeks and levels. Chapter 5 covers the first 3 weeks, save the 2nd, which is covered in Chapter 6. And Chapter 6 covers the rest of the locations in the...

Our next chapter covers a series of new rules to be used in conjunction with the adventure path. While technically they can be adopted for campaigns beyond the Sunken Isles, quite a bit of it makes references or is specific to elements within the adventure. Sailing Through the Isles: Journey by...

Drive-Thru RPG Page. Ghostfire Gaming Page. Hello everyone, and welcome to my next Let’s Read! This time we’re tackling a level 1 to 20 adventure path and brand new Fantasy Counterpart Hawaiian setting. Taking place in the scenic Isles of Manaki, the good people of the land find themselves...

So this was something that crossed my mind when I was doing a review last month, and how mindful to be with using non-spoilered images. Arachnophobia is perhaps the most common animal phobia, and in various RPGs arachnid monsters are rather common. Or arachnid-adjacent, such as ettercaps and...

While I can't say that anyone in my gaming circle would be interested in this, I certainly am in reading about it! Unless they're planned to be handled in a later post, how are firearms handled in terms of weapon proficiencies? And also how do they compare to pre-gunpowder ranged weapons such...

I have 2-3 more write-ups in mind, so just you wait! You're welcome, and thank you back at you for making this book. This review did take a lot of work to write, but it was very fun to do as well. I look forward to seeing the other adventures and sourcebooks you put out for Everyday Heroes.

Not at the moment, unfortunately. I usually prefer to do conversions of characters whose media I'm familiar enough with to be an accurate judge of their capabilities. I haven't seen Cliffhanger, so can't really do a conversion atm.

It's tracked as its own value. You gain PEX when doing things in line with your occupation. Historica Arcanum uses the milestone system, so typical experience points aren't tracked.

Clarification from an earlier post: Suppressors don't have the Restricted property, at least not explicitly in the text. The only firearm that doesn't have the loud property is the Spec Ops SMG, which is Restricted (as is the regular SMG) much like the majority of other Military weapons.

Every good 5e campaign that wants to be nice to noncasters is in need of Feats, and Everyday Heroes delivers them in spades. 104 spades, to be exact! As mentioned before, feats are gained at every even level. On those levels a PC has the option to take 2 Minor Feats or 1 Major Feat. Most feats...
