To Ambient; RE Three Arrows and a King

[johnsemlak]

I'm looking through your product and so far am enjoying it. I'd like to write a review if I have time.

A question

I really like your idea of a 'Multiclass Character Path'. Has anyone else used this concept?

 

[HellHound]

The multiclass paths as a concept are far from original.

They first appeared in The Hero Builder's Guide, and may have been in an earlier issue of Dragon.

I'm glad you are liking the book!

page problems

There seem to be some problems with the page numbers. It seems that in several places a '6' was mistakenly printed as '5' Thus, there is now page 5 but two page 6s, no page 25, two page 26s, etc.

 

[HellHound]

Actually, if you flip back and forth from page 5 to 6 you will notice the page numbers are different. The 5 in that font looks remarkably like a 6 (it really got on my nerves while playing Diablo II actually, so I'm surprised I actually went with that font in the end...)

I'm about half-way through and one thing that bothers me about the full color version is that the text crams right up against the green top border. In the print version there is white space between the black line and the text and that is so much nicer on the eye.

Nice work. And as much material as you pulled in from other works (my, that section 15 is huge), I wish you had included the masterwork components stuff from Bad Axe's HOHF: Elves. No big deal, it just would have been nice to have all the archery stuff in one place.

And while it affects nothing, the mixed Upper case/lower case font the title appears in just gets on my nerves. How long did it take to create? (And I hate that font in Diablo II, too.)

Living, as I do, an hour or more away from civilization, I do not yet own a copy of Heroes of High Favor - Elves. Otherwise I would most likely have included the material in question.

That is a shame. HOHF: Elves will not disappoint. The spell construction rules (16 pages) are excellent. Mail order it from somewhere if you have to (even amazon has it).

Ahh, sorry. Sorry for spreading misinformation.

Nice. I like the attention to detail as well as the suggestions on how it could be improved. As a publisher, that's what I look for. As someone reading the review to determine whether or not I would buy it, I think it would be well-received, particularly the comments about waiting for 3.5e to come out.
