The Final Draft In YOUR Hands!

I noticed in the core book that there was a table for rolling the type of soldiers that PCs attract, by class.
Will there be such an entry for the PH classes or should we just pick an existing table that seems appropriate?

Not sure if this merits a new thread or not, but I do hope the state of the table of contents in the pdf artified version of the PC that came out today is a known bug…

Also I really like the paladin’s helmet, and the ruinguard’s too (though I don’t think he’s ever shown wearing it). I also kind of expect the full-page art across from the Venturer entry to happen in play this evening…

On that same note, now might be a good time to add a built-in PDF outline to the text, to make it easier to find stuff. I’d still like to have that on my ACKs PDF.

The PDF that is on the download site is a preliminary version - we're late on our original projections of when the final PDF would be ready, so I wanted to get something out there in the meantime. Indexing and table of contents is the work that's going on now.

Is it too late to post errors? Mostly, I’ve noticed a few clerical errors.

No, go ahead!

Oh, man, I so want that to have something to do with clerics. :slight_smile:

Wow, the artwork - good stuff !

Alex (or anyone else), have you got any thoughts on removing Restore Life and Limb from a Cleric based class (like the Bladedancer)?

Is it something that you’ve considered in the past but decided against? If so, what was your reasoning?

I’m thinking about taking it out of my Sunspear of Sol class spell list to push the curing of the most serious wounds towards the Priestess and Cleric classes, making the Sunspear less of a healer and more of a holy warrior. However I’m aware that doing so may have a significant impact on the mortality rate of a party with only a Bladedancer/Sunspear in it.

This spell is described as a Divine Level 2 spell, but only appears on the 3rd level Bladedancer spell list.

Which level should it be?

I sent a pdf of grammar errors to Tavis a couple of days ago, most of them pertained to the class powers index. I hope he received it… if not, I can re-post them here.

Go ahead and post here.

We got it and are toiling away to make those changes! Thanks for your feedback and apologies for not saying so right away; it's been a busy week.

Just downloaded the PDF - thank goodness, as that DOC was giving LibreOffice fits :slight_smile:

Anyway - Page 34 -

Paladins’ dark fortresses are otherwise identical to fighters’ castles, as detailed in the Campaign chapter of the ACKS Rulebook.

Paladins don’t have “dark” fortresses :wink: (copypasta from Anti-Paladin, I’m sure)

No problem! I’ll pour over the rest of the powers index tonight if I get the chance.

Just looking at the pdf that’s just gone out to backers.

On page 123 the artwork of the soldier is overlapping the page number. Not a huge deal, but jarring.

Hey, I was just reading the final review draft and found some odd wording in the Mystic’s focus ability. I don’t know if this has already been fixed, but didn’t see it upthread and figured it was worth it to mention. “As the mystic’s mind expands, so does his ability to maintain their focus. Mystic can go into focus once per day per level of experience.” his ability vs their focus; subject/object disagreement. Also should be ‘Mystics’ or ‘The mystic’ at the beginning of the second sentence.
