I'm a big Witcher fan, myself. We have a fairly diverse reading list here.
Siggi wrote:I come to think that my previous ranting about your shift from SoS to BoB was unjustified. As it appears, the game doesn't have a real setting, but it has a well defined theme, and the theme is very inspiring.
I'm glad we could win you back!
Siggi wrote:I can't help to point out that giving us this particular part as a teaser was an ingenious move! Readers tend to skip this introductory pages. And the people here have been waiting for some time (let's call it that) to get their hands on these rules - you couldn't blame them for jumping straight to the combat section or whatever. And now you've made sure that everybody will carefully read your introduction. Well done!
Ha! Mostly, we wanted to get feedback from the people who are most closely following us (and thus most likely to cut us slack if something is off) so that when we launch the beta for real, we can make the best first impression to anyone who will listen.

A couple of words on the typos. First page, second paragraph - the string beginning with the word "flattery" has shifted a bit.
Last page: there are two periods after the words "Game Master" (great that you're using this term, by the way!).
Thanks for pointing them out! Fixed! I'm a terrible editor, it should be said. When we get kickstarted, hiring an editor is definitely on the agenda.

In general I liked the section a lot. As I've already said, it's brief, straight and quite intriguing.
Awesome.

One question (I don't remember if we'd talked about it before): are you providing a character sheet with the rules? Hope that you do.
Absolutely. I want to have the character sheet and hopefully some play-aids ready to launch at beta. The character sheet will definitely be ready at beta, the play-aids will be either available at or during the beta.
