Enjoyable thus far, but some issues

3/5

I've been running Wrath of the Righteous for my normal gaming group, and we are enjoying it greatly. The mythic rules are well-liked, for the most part, and the setting is loved. The issues we've had are 1) a lack of stand-alone mythic feats, instead of those augmenting pre-existing standard feats, and 2) the mass combat rules. My group really dislikes them, so I have had to move to a more cinematic description of the battle, with more standard encounters representing their part in it. This has worked well so far, but it was a bit tricky for me to do on the fly as a relatively new GM. This option was recommended in the adventure path itself, but I wish there had been an appendix with stat blocks for those of us who honestly dislike the mass combat rules but aren't so good at balancing encounters on the fly.

I did have what, based on other reviews I have read, is apparently an existing issue. I got the Sword of Valor hard copy and, within a half hour of starting to run the game, the book began to fall apart on me. The first 16 pages came completely out of the book. It was a major irritation, but not one that will prevent me from continuing to use the hard copies of the adventure path. I just wish the quality control was a bit more on the ball.

That said, I highly recommend this adventure path. It is an enjoyable game, with plenty of options for those who want their characters to feel Mythic.
