AW:Dark Age / Re: Bloodless Xristos
« on: March 09, 2014, 11:49:14 PM »
Honestly the way it felt when we played it the Bloodless Xristos seemed more like an outside faceless force, most of us were either skeptics, old gods followers or followers of the Empires of Eagles' gods so take that as a drop in the bucket. I just think it would be interesting to treat it as not necessarily a force you can't play as but a strange and powerful rising thing. The thing that supposedly tamed and killed the dragons. They seem almost better shrouded in mystery.

AW:Dark Age / Re: Question about the War Herald: Better Qualities

I don't think the Harm part has any interaction but the "move swiftly and silently certainly does", I think they should make it a little better and remove the harm at range so you can have guerrilla longbowmen or mounted bandits and the like without relying on range at all. On the other hand that does eliminate options for those who just want to be men hiding in the trees with slings hitting people.

AW:Dark Age / A few questions and observations regarding Dark Ages
« on: March 09, 2014, 11:20:31 PM »
So we played our first session of AW: Dark Ages today (my GM will post his observations, our map, and stuff about our game probably next week) and I had some things to ask

1. The outlaw heir's "Yours By Right" Holdings, how do you get them? Do you have to assert your hold over them? Or are they holdings like the War Herald's stuff are holdings as in you automatically have them?

2. In our first game my War Herald leveled up twice, it seems like the War Herald has far more stuff to mark for XP due to the fact that many of the things involving their warband are marked individually, including using your lieutenant, and each of your individual notable members. It seems really easy for the War Herald to get more XP than anyone else.

3. This will probably be expanded on more in the future summation of our game but I think there should be bonuses for people being of lower rank, I know they have less to worry about when they have a roll for changing the seasons (Oh trust me, they have a LOT less to worry about), but you would think you would have more reasons to be lower rank

We had a lot of fun though, I really love the holdings system.
