ToV [KOBOLD PRESS] Tales of the Valiant KS is Live!

[MichaelSomething]

Just a bump to note that they already raised over 300k. That's good news. One of the stretch goals is to get a linguist to create an actual Draconic language!

Watching the numbers go up has been my work entertainment today. It's like watching high scores in arcade games. I'm such a dork lol

Going over the preview booklet, I'm happy to see real improvements over the playtest packets, particularly putting distance between Lineage and Heritage options.

Regarding the preview booklet...why do wizards get absolutely no weapon proficiencies? Do they pick them up elsewhere? I didn't see it, easily could have missed it.

In the table is says NONE! So, um, wizards can't fight? Harsh.....

There's a developer diary at the ToV website that states it was a conscious decision to differentiate wizards and martials. SUPREME COSMIC POWER no weapon proficiencies.

They can fight. They're just terrible at it (penalized for attacking without proficiency in whatever weapon they use).

Honestly, that seems fine to me. And if you're going to be terrible at fighting with weapons, there's no reason for the wizard to not pick up that magic sword no one else wants once they've all got better ...

We are extremely crunched for cash right now, so I am likely going to wait for the releases next year, but I'm extremely impressed with what I see, and the Monster Vault is very, very tempting.
