I know, I know... the book is not even out yet...
Nonetheless, the nerfing of the demon lords/princes in the book has already caused considerable consternation in the RPG community interested in the matter. Having hoped for an increase in power over the BOVD stats, I myself am also disappointed, but I will leave it at that, since this is not the thread for arguments on this topic.
Still, it is clear the number of those disappointed is substantial. Advancing the demon lords/princes through hit dice is not difficult, but very bland - no new flavourful powers. I doubt WotC would fully print new, more powerful versions of the demon lords/princes in a web enhancement, hence, what I would like to see in a web-enhancement is a list of 'unique' abilities to give to each demon lord/prince as they are advanced in hit dice to bring them to a much higher power level (I would say they should range from CR30 to CR40+). This would to a great extent solve my problem with the weak demon lords/princes (cosmological consistency is the second part of the problem - IMHO demon lords should have a lower limit on power equivalent to a fully advanced balor - the greatest of 'non-unique' demons, but this problem is no longer solvable).
Anybody else would like to see such a web enhancement?
Note: Another thing I would like to see in a web enhancement is flavourful mechanics for augumentation of demon lords/princes on their own layers in their citadels and mechanics for control over layers, but since the demon lords/princes have been so depowered, the above takes priority in my opinion.
