Also I did liked the nods towards WFB, mainly the 6th edition, with which it was connected, but some things were... weird. Like when Orc Boy or a Chaos Warrior were weaker than a Stormvermin. That was weird and not in a right way. Also yes, some tests were impossible to pass, I agree. Then again, some of them should NOT be passed... ;)<br />Elves could get a nice supplement (something that Black Industries promised, but never delivered), but I agree - WFRP is mainly set in the Old World, and it should reflect that fact. High Elves are cool and all, but they don't really fit. Maybe as NPC's in some cases, but overall it should be about humans, then dwarfs, than halflings and finally about the "domesticated" kind of elves.Xathrodox86https://www.blogger.com/profile/13542258686214382921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6461406011459210483.post-5402450527296497372017-03-26T15:16:30.360+02:002017-03-26T15:16:30.360+02:00The whole rule-bloat things is an excellent point....The whole rule-bloat things is an excellent point.<br />Warhammer 2nd edition shined because of this reason. It is realy quite simple, yet combat has atleast a FEW tricks up its sleave (half-actions such as aim etc) that you can be a bit tactical.<br />The rules were still burdened by its wargame legacy (ie the stats were realy wonky what with you often having about as large a chance to -30% crit-fail as to succeed) but it WAS simple.<br />I am hoping for someting akin to 2nd edition, but with a bit more modern rules. And no goddamn High Elves. They do not belong in the flea-bitten parts of the old world where the PCs dwell.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03046024561512000005noreply@blogger.com
