The above was changed starting with 2nd printing of Core. However, it has stayed around through all printings of White Box.Shadow Demonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08009127958568902852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724254580047847936.post-26149195477144398062017-01-18T12:58:36.548-05:002017-01-18T12:58:36.548-05:00valid points.

The Fighter does it slightly different as "1+1HD at 1st lvl"<br /><br />We know what we mean but it is confusing to someone when this is their first RPG.Dithering Foolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10320912576947632933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724254580047847936.post-39751748149931817822017-01-18T11:34:52.132-05:002017-01-18T11:34:52.132-05:00Different monsters?

2 - SWL ...1 - will look into for the next revision<br /><br />2 - SWL is a Swords & Wizardry Official ruleset. Ascending / descending is a requirement. SWL assumes some familiarity with RPGs, either from youth or other flavors or from other players. To be a true beginners game, we'd have to explain what RPGs are, and that is beyond the scope or available space.<br /><br />3 - poison is Save or Die. We'll make note of that in the next revision<br /><br />4 - i'll look into adding saves to the stat blocks if it doesn't throw off the already tight layout. we literally wrote this under a type of "Twitter" rule, using as few characters as possible to conserve space.<br /><br />As for variety of monsters, expect more to be added when the one-sheets and other adventures get released. Again, limited space meant limited initial assortment.<br /><br />5 - we'll look into it :)Tenkarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05159289652051155824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724254580047847936.post-38663420394223653412017-01-18T11:12:14.846-05:002017-01-18T11:12:14.846-05:00M-U: There's no damage for the M-U weapons, wh...M-U: There's no damage for the M-U weapons, while they are in the listings for the other classes.<br /><br />Ascending/Descending AC: For a beginner's game, I'd just pick one and run with it. Personally, I'd go with Ascending. It's easier for a beginner, and lets you go with attack bonuses, drop the to-hit table to save some space, and use it for a simple reaction table. But suum cuique on Ascending/Descending, as long as you pick one.<br /><br />Wyvern: What does the poison do? Just the 1d6 damage?<br /><br />Monsters in general: It would be faster to have their saves in the statblock. Also, 9 of 18 are monstrous humanoids, 3 of 18 are giant animals, 3 of 18 are undead, leaving three that don't fit these categories: dryad, worg, wyvern. While this is a low-level game, should there be a little more variety in foes?<br /><br />Movement: Since the movement rate is tied to race, it would make sense to put it in the race writeup.Charles Saegerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00368131505593336249noreply@blogger.com
