Arcana Unearthed: GRIMOIRE II

[HiLiphNY]

Sweet Gunga Munga!

Monte and the gang have converted ALL the spells in Book of Eldritch Might, Book of Hallowed Might, and Book of Hallowed Might II to AU rules! That, and it's a $7 .pdf!

Fantastic job, guys. You rawk!

Yep, just grabbed it -- good stuff. AU needs more spells and now we have them.

 

[Nightfall]

Course more spells will be forth coming with both Book of Iron Might, that other Mike Mearls book and soon AU Evolved.

I wonder if some of the extra stuff in Arcana Evolved will be all those spell conversions? I've already got the Book of Eldritch Might hardcover with the converted spells, so I'm not really wild about buying a PDF with many of the same conversions, but having them all in one list along with the AU spells might just make AE worthwhile for me.

Scott,

It's entirely possible. I mean I think they said they were bringing a lot of the stuff from what been used in CBoEM and the two BoHMs. (Plus I think they said the monsters too from Legacy but I could be wrong) So it is possible. But I think the reason for this is just to tide people over so they don't have to wait until AU Evolved comes out.

From Monte's boards:

Quote: Will the stuff from Grimoire II be in it?​

A little, and the content that is in there will be reworked (it's the dragon magic stuff).

Remember that Grimoire II is 80 pages long. It's not something that's easily folded in.

Plus, I want the new stuff in Arcana Evolved to be new stuff.

I like Grimoire II more than I thought I would

Grimoire II does a good job of making the spells AU flavored. Malhavoc Press removed the D&D references and put in appropriate AU ones. There are some nice little touches to some of the spells.

I gave an example on Monte's board, and copied here:

Blissful sleep
The last sentence in the description of CBoEM says that characters sleeping under the effects of this spell are immune to nightmare.

In Grimoire II, it says: Characters sleeping under the effects of this spell gain a +4 luck bonus to saving throws against somnamancer class abilities and dream hunter special attacks.


Peace and smiles

Are the spells from AU compiled with, as well?

No, these are the spells from CBOEM and BOHM I & II. Grimoire I has the AU spells.

Too bad, the prospect of having all the AU spells in one book was interesting.
