[QUOTE="Endzeitgeist, post: 5201812, member: 82318"] Disclaimer: I'm a sucker for asylums. My campaigns tend to often lead to these places and that's why I'm very glad, that this installment of ECS exists. This pdf consists of 26 pages, 1 page front cover, 1 page credits, 1page back cover/ad and 1 page OGL. The excursion into the walls of the asylum begins with 4 pages containing high-quality IC prose, two key-less, player-friendly (YES!) maps of the asylum and its basement as well as information on two characters, including their secrets. Next are the statblocks: "Mother Sharlene Murrell" (2 pages including 2 nice, social feats for aristocrats) "Brother Broomore" (2 pages) "Railee McGee" (~half a page) "Doyenne Murrell" (1 page) It also mentions 4 notable inmates. After that, we get 11 pages of inflated battle-maps. The 2 A4-versions of the scale maps, included in separate pdfs (6 pages asylum + 3 pages basement) are a nice bonus for Europeans like yours truly. Plus, sorcerors get a new bloodline for free, the Medusa bloodline, a 1 page web-enhancement. Conclusion: It's cool, cheap and include one new bloodline. While I feel that "Bedlam Asylum" is superior to "Kavit's Emporium" when it comes to fluff and a key-less map, ECS: Kavit has the upper hand on crunch and re-usability, in spite of the web-enhancement. My main criticism is that I would have loved to see a list of 10 "treatments" in the cellar as the icing on the cake. Due to the great production value and the fact that I'm a total sucker for asylums, I'll give it 5 stars. If you're not that into asylums, deduct one star. It's still a great deal for 2 bucks, but I nevertheless consider "Kavit" to be the superior by a sliver. I'd give this 4.5 stars, rounded up. Edit: The first version had a problem with the scale maps, the new version has the medusa bloodline as a nice crunchy addendum. I modified my review according to the new files. [/QUOTE]
