I personally think the concept should be totally safe--fairy tales abound with tales of sinister wolves with a penchant for disguise and a fondness for swallowing their prey whole. They just need a rebrand. Pg 38 is the Barghest. DnD didn't create them.

Resolve points are a pool of increasing amount and double as your out of combat healing resource, and so you get a lot of them and they come back everyday. Hero points are you get 1 every session and you might get more if your GM gives them to you and even then you only can have 3 max. You can't really make a subsystem around different hero points usages because the amount is a lot smaller. The more my players use Hero Points, the more I award them. We have had long sessions that resulted in a flurry of HP activity because they tend to go big and when they use them they get them replaced. I've let them use HP's to do many of the same things resolve points do. It's been my experience that Hero Points arent used like Resolve Points mostly because they're sat on for 'get out of death' scenarios because re rolling a 3 to get a 4 is uninspiring during big supposedly heroic fortune roll moments.
I'd like a mass download, but I'd also be happy with improved nesting/categorizing. Adventure paths alone are divided multiple ways appearing before, during and after various product lines and each other.Just tossing them into a single category (preferably by game line/edition) would be less confusing when looking for something. |
