Hi there! Yesterday I tried the game with a friend, and it works smooothly as I was expecting! Great job! Just a couple of points to discuss, and I will be happy if you could answer :D
- we wanted to create a custom character but we couldn't get how the "choosing abilities" section works: let's say a character has 21 dice value points total. The tier should be the one with 4 Stamina points (pg.13). Once we got there, we were just lost ahahah. What does this tier refers to? The total of spendable stamina for the Starting Abilities (+1 a free one?). And then, what about the Unlockable? If there are 4 additional points to spend for unlockable abilities, we are talking about a total of 8 stamina that can be spent on Starting and Unlockable? We tried and compare these thoughts with the pregens, but we couldn't find a consistent pattern. so PLEASE help :D
- in the delves there are 2 different table for Items and Weapons/Armour. When the Reward tables refers to "equipment", should we roll a d12 on these tables and get a random iteems/weapon/armor from here? Is that what you intended with Equipment? We got confused by the words Equipment but then there's no a proper Equipment table except for the one at pag.17
It would be great to hear from you, because we usually like to play games as intended by the author! Again, great work! It was fun until the Wyrm wiped us away...actually, also that was part of the fun.
Cheers,
Lorenzo
Happy to hear you are enjoying the game.
1. The 4 Stamina is your starting Stamina for the custom character. When choosing Starting Abilities, look at the Stamina cost to use each. Then, you pick up to your total starting Stamina worth of abilities for your custom character. So, a "tier 4" character would have 4 Stamina point to "use" for picking Starting Abilities from the existing characters. In most cases, you will get 4 Abilities as most only cost 1 Stamina from the Starting Abilities cost 1 Stamina to use.
2. An Unlockable refers to Abilities that you only unlock with the main characters during gameplay. You can see them on the bottom of each character under "Unlockable Abilities." With a "tier 4" character you pick abilities from these lists up to the 4 Stamina cost total. Choose what you want, calculate the total Stamina to use them, and then adjust (same as above). You unlock these the same way as the base characters, i.e. you need to do Training and spend coins.
3. When you are rewarded "Equipment" pick either table to roll on. It is split this way to make it easier to get things you want as some Delves require items from specific lists.
Let me know if you have any additional questions.
