Some questions and observations as I read through the text
Posted: Tue Jun 26, 2012 3:59 am
I use a 'stream of consciousness' approach to playtest documents. I try to read from front to back writing down any questions or observations that come to mind as I read. I may find the answer to a question later in the text but I feel that the fact that I had the question at the time usually means something.
Here are my first few items:
Page 7
As cores for each ability are calculated, not any abilities modifiers on the character sheet.
Note: I can’t figure out what this is trying to say.
Page 7
Do intelligence bonuses use the number inside or outside the parentheses?
Page 8
Should “Requirements”, “Ability Adjustments”, and “Skill Adjustments” be discussed in the “Races” paragraph before they are used in the race descriptions?
Page 8
Can the “Requirements” be met by applying the “Ability Adjustments”? For example, could a character with a CON of 10 pick the Rigel race because they get CON +2 and will have a total CON = 12?
Page 8
The RACES paragraph says “each race list avoided branches and sub-classes” but I don’t see this in any of the Race descriptions.
