One Bad Egg: "Hatching the Best Stuff for D&D"

[madwabbit]

OBE: Unbroken

New product release at OneBadEgg:

What happens when the faithful lose their way? What happens when a Paladin falls?

The loss of faith can be a terrible tragedy. For many, it is the end of everything. But a few weather this trial with strength and dignity and come out stronger for it—bloodied and battered, but Unbroken.

Inside this PDF you’ll find a new paragon path for the Paladin class, a new magic item, a monster template, and a faithless angel. You’ll also find two new feats that can be used by any character at any tier to add an “aspect’ of honor and sacrifice to your play.

Available at IPR and RPGNow.

I bought the Unbroken, and I have deemed it the first 4e supplement worthy of the Must-Have designation. Awesome job guys.

Cheers

Whoa! Thanks, Jack99! (And thanks Wabbit for getting the word out!)

I bought this. Overall it is the best production of a 4E product you have done. It will be awhile untill I can playtest it.

The covers on the Apelord and Witch Doctor were not that good. This cover is much better. You should upgrade the others. I would like to see power cards added like Alea did with the noble class and like LPJ design plans to do with the Elohim. You should add power cards to the Witch Doctor too (and add the class power cards to the Apelord).

Yep, I'm thinking about it. Honestly, the Apelord and Witch Doctor were conceived of as "interior pages only", which is why they looked as they did, but it's become clear that folks want a "real-looking cover" on everything, so I changed over to the new design.

I'm almost certain to upgrade the Apelord, but since the Witch Doctor's still in playtest, there's not a lot of need to do the upgrade there. The Witch Doctor in its final version definitely will get the full treatment, though!

I would like to see power cards added like Alea did with the noble class and like LPJ design plans to do with the Elohim. You should add power cards to the Witch Doctor too (and add the class power cards to the Apelord).

Help me understand the need here more clearly -- what does a power card get you that printing out that page of the PDF and cutting out the power writeup itself doesn't? A standard shape & size? Or is there something more to it?

(In other words, I want to make sure I understand what's being asked for in full, before I go off and do it. This isn't resistance, it's curiosity!)

Thanks again!

It makes it extremely easy for us if you guys can format the powers to that standard size (afaik it's 2.5 inch wide, and 3.5 inch high) in the back of the pdf (I think you can fit 8 or9 powers per page, usually, depending on if you do landscape or not), so that we can print out whole pages to cut, and they fit those small plastic pockets we use for all the other powers.

Hope that made some sense.

Cheers

Yep! That's essentially "9-up" format, used for playing cards and other such things. 2.5 x 3.5 gets you a 3x3 grid on 8.5" x 11" page with a bit of margin around it.

I'll look into educating myself some more on this feature and do what I can, thanks for the suggestions, guys.

Races of the Shroud: The Half-Dead

New release from OneBadEgg.com:

Races of the Shroud: The Half-Dead

Infected with dark, necrotic magics while dying, the half-dead have returned only part-way to life, their flesh afflicted by an undead curse. Though they can be killed, Death’s grip upon the half-dead is a slippery one at best. Half-dead characters—whether tragic heroes or dark villains—hound their foes relentlessly, driven to action by the horror of their condition. Many half-dead seek to hide their nature from others. When the half-dead are finally revealed for what they are, much of the world responds with horror, revulsion, and worse.

Inside this PDF you’ll find a complete player race for Dungeons & Dragons Fourth Edition, along with ten racial feats to bring the horror within to life. You’ll also find a monster template, a dead minotaur back for revenge, story ideas, and power cards.

Races of the Shroud: The Half-Dead, written by Fred Hicks and Lee Hammock, is a six-page PDF and is priced at $1.99.

• Release date: October 28th 2008
