[QUOTE="Jolly Giant, post: 3307379, member: 5278"] Thanks Fenris, I think I needed that. :heh: The book is largely completed, I'm done with all the mechanical stuff and what I think of as the "game stuff". All the material on classes, spells, feats, monsters, skill uses, equipment, etc. is finished. The chapters on religion and cosmology are done. I've also done a chapter on the Viking way of life; describing their ethics, laws and way of thinking, and also their day-to-day life in Scandinavia. I'm [I]mostly [/I] done with the section about their travels and their relations to other cultures. What remains are the bits that are largely Scandinavian geography and history, and I admit I'm struggling here. I just don't know how much to include of this. Vikings D20 is by nature a blend of facts and fantasy, but I just don't know how many facts to include. And which facts do I include, and which do I leave out? Obviously I can't include every bit of potentially relevant information, or the book would be thousands of pages long. :eek: Typing this, I realize what I should have done long ago: Ask you guys! Could you please give me some feedback on what kind of facts you think you need to make your future Vikings D20 campaigns the best gaming experience it could be? How much geographical and historical information do you want? All input is most welcome (as always)! Finally, thanks for your patience everyone! This project has taken [I]waaay [/I] longer than I ever imagined possible, and I apologize for keeping you waiting so long. -Vidar. [/QUOTE]
