Yeah, it changed when IGN acquired Humble Bundle years ago, I don't think many folk notice so I point it out where I can (y)

Just a reminder that you can (and should consider) adjusting your donation when checking out a Humble Bundle.

Quite interested in those reviews!

I've only started Level Up A5E characters at levels 1 or 2 because they get so many features! I've started 5e games at lvls 5-7 before, but A5E is another beast...

At the end of the session, you go back to town- there's no choice. It requires either a weird narrative mechanic (you're in a toxic magi-zone and can only spend so much time out adventuring before you're yanked back by your automated detect-o-porters), or everyone just accepts the conceit to...

I tend to do the same, but most of my players, new and old, seem to want to go into DnD with builds prepped n' ready. I guess I understand, they look at all the options and get ideas and want to fulfill those ideas. But I can still be curmudgeoney about it!

I just tell herald players "you have an exertion pool that works like the regular martials, except it's equal to your PB, not PB*2." Regarding more precise wording, if you wanted to write it up properly, just use other martials' feature. Because the herald's exertion is the exception, the...

I did not know that there was a Prince Valiant show, I only picked up the collected comics a few years ago.

Yeah, I'm quite aware that Heralds end up having a ton of exertion if they burn all their spell slots for it, but that's late in the game, at high levels. The big pains I've seen from heralds that caused the player to multiclass was because early on, they get pretty burned on exertion for...

This review of The Grey Knight gives you a good idea of themes that are center to the adventure. I’d screencap or quote but I think the review deserves some views 😆 https://akhelas.com/2024/07/19/review-the-grey-knight/ But I think one big thing is the knights themselves, their vows and...

Don’t sleep on Mythic Bastionland! For OP, I’ll take a look and see if I can grab some examples.

Oh, no, the herald gets the PB pool. If they do multiclass into fighter, they get the standard pb*2 pool. It's strictly a buff to herald, to give them a few points of exertion to play with. If you multiclass into fighter it does nothing.

I didn't explain enough. One reason my herald players multiclass to fighter is to get a standard exertion pool. There are other reasons, a better maneuver progression and fighting style etc. But if you give Herald a standard exertion pool, but make it only equal to PB, (they can still burn...

Giving Heralds a pool of exertion = PB (rather than others PB*2) can help avoid the optimal-fighter-dip, I think. It won't help their maneuver progression ofc but I try to make it clear to players that the herald isn't a maneuver-master. That doesn't really sell them though, they still want to...
