Getting lost in fantasy maps
I had been volunteering some late edits a few weeks ago, last I heard Wulf was experimenting with layout that should save many pages.
Hello,
how is the monster book coming? No news for a month...
Wheee! Can't wait to see all the patronage monsters in all their glory . . . Excellent tease with the "bonus" stat blocks!I've been throwing in some "bonus" stat blocks here and there as well. It's definitely given me a chance to flex some creative muscles as opposed to just converting stat blocks. The patronage monsters are really looking good.
I'm jammed up on the lycanthropes, the last of the SRD monsters. GlassJaw and I can't seem to come to a resolution that (in my opinion) sufficiently cuts through the crap and "Trailblazerizes" these suckers.
Once that's set, the rest of that section can fall into place-- massaging the pages and dropping in illustrations. When that's done, the entire SRD will be done, and I'll likely release the PDFs to Kickstarter patrons.
Then we wrap up the last of the patronage monsters, a little bonus design ju-jitsu from me, and we're done.
Available first quarter this year?
We can definitely see the light at the end of the tunnel.
Hey, just had a friend (running a TB campaign this coming semester) ask me if the monster book will include monster downgrade rules, much like the monster upgrade rules, for those situations where you want to use a particular monster for the flavor / abilities, but it's just too strong (potentially much too strong) for your PCs. Is this a thing? If not, has any research been done on this topic?
