[QUOTE="tetrasodium, post: 8212751, member: 93670"] I'm going to agree with pretty much everything [USER=18]@Ruin Explorer[/USER] wrote about that [USER=6987520]@6ENow![/USER], my initial thoughts were to suggest a sidebar somewhere talking about how alignments of the planes & various other fantasy treknobabble meant that ingredients tend to vary, but the "this is how one crafter made it" is probably a better tact. The skill checks don't really add anything though actually detract from the process. I used a home cheesemaking example for times earlier so will stick with that, I may not be up to the point where I could crank out something on par with the 2019 world cheese award grand prize winning "organic, cave-aged blue cheese that is wrapped in Syrah grape leaves that are soaked in pear spirits", but I made blue cheese & more than one kind of wine soaked cheese at some point after learning the basics of cheesemaking & feel like I would probably have a100% chance of making something that could be called "organic, cave-aged blue cheese that is wrapped in Syrah grape leaves that are soaked in pear spirits" if I had the leaves & hit totalwine for pear spirits as I'm proficient at cheesemaking & no individual step is actually difficult to reach a level that could be qualified as successful.
