No problem with that. But I'm not in a position to get the book yet.

EDIT: any new archetypes for the races we have already?

The new book contains:
  • Four new Archetypes for the Lumineth (Alarith Stoneguard, Alarith Stonemage, Scinari Cathallar, Vanari Warrior)
  • One additional new Archetype for everyone except the Free Peoples (Khainite Shadowstalker, Grimwrath Berzerker, Isharann Soulrender, Aethric Navigator, Knight-Zephyros, Spite Revenant)
  • Unique rules for different subfactions within the factions - essentially a trait representing your place of origin, with a bonus talent or 2xp of skills as an alternative.
  • A huge number of new talents, with many of them helping you further define your character's playstyle. Quite a few have higher attribute or training and focus requirements than those in the core book.
  • New Miracles and Spells for all the factions (including a Teclis-themed set of both)
  • A rather small section of new equipment
  • Around forty new Endeavors
  • Expanded rules for allies and contacts
  • and a pre-gen Binding for getting people straight into games.

There's also some nice fluffy things like a section meant to help hash out which deity sanctioned the creation of the PCs' Binding and why, as well as faction-specific tables with suggestions for short and long term goals. One other thing I really liked was the table you can roll on to develop reforging side-effects for Stormcast characters. There's just a lot of good stuff.

Pre-ordered the book yesterday, reading the pdf. Feels to be a great book so far.

Sorry it took me a while to put something up. I wasn't very sure what was worth adding and can get a bit lost in my own head when that happens.

We aren't moving yet but we are designing our own house so hopefully we can put the plans in for planning next week then if approved start in June hopefully this time next year we'll be in and I'll have my own detached games room in the garden :)

So moving home in any form is stressful.....

Well we made it safely out, just before travel authorities went crazy again. Still living from the suitcase a bit, but hopefully have an interview soon.

We had a out 70m2 two bedroom place rented, but when the younger of our two kids was gonna move away from our bedroom, we felt it was a good time to try to get a bigger home. Got a 111m2 four bedroom home, which is a half of an house. Damn it made a difference, and as a Finn I finally got my own Sauna!

While it was just moving inside of the same city, it was sooooooooo stressful and extra costs just kept popping up for a few months, but fortunately things settled and wife managed to find work for a whole year.

Hi guys. I'm still here ... just about.

My last week or so has been a total mess. I have a persistent health issue that's been flaring up - nothing serious - and it's really set off my depression, so I haven't had a whole lot of energy for anything really. I've kept wanting to look in here but it's just been too hard to face. Any plans I've made have tended to fall apart in short order.

I definitely still want to be involved in this and I'm going to do my best to get a post up later on today. No promises though sadly :(

This is supposed to be a slow burner anyway. I know what depression can do to you and it is always worse when combined with other issues. You do you Nirva, at least I will be hanging around here.

Okay things went really crazy and I'm sorry I've been incommunicado for a month. Slightly more settled than I was and a high possibility of a job in the near future. Hooray!  I'll try and recentre with Soulbound and hopefully I can get the wheels turning again if you are all still here listening.

Thank you for your patience and best of luck.

Dear players.
I am still job hunting and things are looking positive for the future. At the same time, I have definitely not given this game the attention it deserved so I have reluctantly decided that the best thing is to close the game.

I really appreciate you all taking the time to make characters, and put up with my quirks.

For the interested: The circle would go up against a beastherd corrupting the wilds. I was torn between this or a failing Sylvaneth grove.

At the end you would face a (potentially lore breaking) reluctant dragon Ogor shaggoth. And it would have been your choice whether to leave him be, or kill him.

Ultimately, I still feel that closing the game is the best thing to do, and it actually hurts to write this.

At the end of next week, I will delete the game.

Thank you again, and I hope to meet up with you all again, maybe as a player, instead of a not very effective GM. Best wishes to you all

Thanks for getting back in touch with us to provide a bit of closure. It's definitely interesting to see what your plans were.

Glad to hear things are looking up on your end, and I hope they work out for you :)
