![]() The occasional rare Airship, ala Setzer's Airship from FFVI (FFIII in the US) was one thing. The small proliferation of a single nation having a little fleet of Airships, ala the Kingdom of Baron from FFIV (FFII in the US) still wasn't too bad. The Dwarven tanks was something else...The Tower of Babil and the Giant of Babil being controlled by a giant Computer...okay, there are some problems. Anything beyond this sort of proliferation starts detracting from the 'fantasy' feel of a game, going a bit more Steampunk or MagiTech crazy. Each of those games, or FFVII and its motorcycles took things too far in at least some regards. A suggestion for those who want lots of Steampunk and MagiTech stuff, check out Privateer Press' Iron Kingdom's setting. It also has great rules for firearms too. The Gunmage class is rather awesome. I really liked the setting, but when I was involved there were no books but the main Campaign Guide out. I think there are all kinds of things out for it now. All that said, my games really go for more Fantasy than the other feel. I am going with the grittiness of Golarion for mine. I personally don't want to see Airships in Golarion...it'd be like seeing Firearms in Conan...I just don't want to see it. Some occasional ancient MagiTech or something left over from Azlant is one thing...Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow is something else entirely. ![]()
![]() Sir Hexen just has the worst luck, doesn't he? Really he should go back to playing a Hexblade, the whole Aura of Unluck ability just makes so much sense for him. A quick question for the journalist in OOC fashion. What is the design of this character now that MizKitty is out of the picture? Is the Journalist another Druid...she seems to be a divine caster...but who knows. A 'Savant' (from Dragon Compendium) would have been an awesome choice for a character of this kind. ![]()
![]() Btw...Sir Hexen.
If you guys aren't that familiar with all the Greyhawk deities, get familiar with them... And never never trust a Priest of Tharizdun again! Or anyone who worships the God of Destruction, Entropy, and Madness... I realize you guys probably know this part now, if you didn't before...but I just felt I had to say it. |
