[QUOTE="gyor, post: 7812223, member: 6670153"] This update makes Baldur's Gate a lot more interesting then it used to be honestly, so this book exceded my expectations by a lot. Also when it comes to the Warmachines, it doesn't say what happens when you use Demon Ichor without a soul coin, so I see no reason you couldn't fuel it, as least for a short and risky time with just Demon Ichor. Most of the Background features are ironically only useful in BG, being useless to Avernus. This is the great flaw of backgrounds with a strong tie to a particular city, it's useless anywhere else. The most useful in my opinion are the nobles and the Acolytes. Religious Community is more useful then it seems, because it allows to find exactly where the followers of any religion cluster in the city are, and pretty much all of them are in the city. That includes worshippers of the Dead Three, Asmodeaus, other fiends, and Gods linked to certain professions are. Like if you need a thief, go where the worshippers if Mask congragate, if you want the gather secrets of the coin lasses and lads you go where the worshippers of Shares dwell. Need a guide into the Underdark? Find the worshippers of Keptolo dwell or another member of the Dark Sederine dwell. It also says your well connected in the religious community. Also the Gazetter details at least two major brothels, one of which is Undercellar (aka where fun is at). [/QUOTE]
