Really useful so far. Have used in a few sessions. Consistent portraits to show to players, and NPC write-ups are great. Would be nice to download images as individual JPGs for use with a VTT, but still really pleased. Will probably get the whole line.

Quality of the art is very hit or miss. Some look like Poser models.

I've had this for a couple of months now, I don't use it all the time, but I do use it a lot and have absolutely no regrets. There are a handful of cases where there could have been a little more space left under the NPCs for fixing onto their stands, but that's a minor moan. It is, to me, an essential piece of kit for the paper mini user.

Great deck, very useful. Just wish it came with a box like other decks they sell.

This is MUCH better rum than I expected. Buy the whole barrel if you can.

The story plots are unique and layered. Each has a hook, key encounters, and follow-up ideas. I don't know how it fits on a card but it does.

These are NOT random "you meet d20 skeletons on a d6-table craft looking for d12-table treasure".

They're the kind of adventure outlines you'd write for yourself with opportunities for role play, negotiation, villains that will make your players roar, and of course combat.

The art for the ship deck plans and port maps is, well, all over the map. It includes detailed black and white line drawings, color illustrations, and acceptable hex tiles. Personally I like all of it and I'm amazed to get so many unique maps for this price. This alone is worth the price and then some.

The card design is adequate. I allllmost wish there was a black and white option for affordable home printing.

This is one of the top 10 "value for the dollar" products I've ever bought, and I've bought over 600 PDFs here at DTRPG.

i backed these decks on Kickstarter and love them. They are great for creating new adventures and easy to use.

I found the statstat blocks really useful but I really wish that they would have had some medium and small sized creatures in here that would be usable as ranger animal companions.

With 54 creatures in each of five decks, you have 270 creature types at your fingertips. The previews show you exactly what you get with each creature: good artwork and the Fate specs for the creature: concept, trouble, other aspects, Fate Core skills, stunts, extras, physical and mental stress tracks, and size.

Most creature types get a single card: one stone giant card, one red dragon card, one ettercap card, and so on. Some get two or three cards for subtypes, such as goblin, goblin leader, and goblin shaman or lamia and lamia matriarch.

If you're using Fate Accelerated, Evil Hat has a Fate Accelerated/Core Conversion Guide that gives you a conversion method. That guide also notes, however, that "it’s not really going to wreck anything for you to just leave them as is, roll what you gotta roll, and stay focused on the players." (It's referring to Core/Accelerated conversion in general, not the creature decks in particular.)

Each card gives the creature a scale rating, which isn't a Fate term. The title card says that scale is "an indication of the creature's power." Whether and how you use the scale rating is left up to you; the cards provide no game mechanics for it. One might quibble with some of their choices, such as giving an ordinary toad (Small and Harmless Amphibian) the same scale rating as a zombie.

Monster stat blocks in other RPG systems tend to focus heavily on combat stats, leaving non-combat elements to the descriptive text. These cards include combat and non-combat elements, fortunately, and sometimes hints on when they'd seek or avoid combat. The drider is a Corrupted and Shamed Elf/Spider Hybrid. The goblin leader has If You Can't Beat 'Em, Hide. A griffon is a Mythic King of Beasts of the Sky and Earth. A manticore has Buy Me Off - Please.

There's no narrative description of the creatures beyond what you see on the cards. You'd take inspiration from the card elements and from your own understanding or vision of the creature. Some of the listed aspects are obvious and straightforward. An eye of the deep Sees in All Directions. A hippogriff is a Half-Horse Half-Hawk Flying Steed. Some aspects are more open to interpretation. A harpy has A Taste for the Exotic as its trouble and What Is That Scent? for one of its additional aspects. A stone giant has What Has Been Hewn in Stone. This is good news if that inspires your group, or bad news if you want a more detailed explanation of what it all means.

Magic-using creatures have magic-related aspects, stunts, or extras. There's no particular system of magic other than using these things to create magical effects. A kobold shaman, for example, has Trap Magic and Minor Illusions as stunts, with brief descriptions of each.

I think I put the review in the discussoons section.

This is really my review for all the Worldgrapher Isometric Map Icons. Generally I was pretty happy with these icons though a few where maybe a little repetitive (the keeps stand out here with most being a slight variation of each other).

My two complaints where that I would have liked to have larger HD icons in all the packs (this was actually done with teh Dwarf pack) as it is impossible to determine ahead of time how large an icon will be needed for any given individuals map. I found myself scaling up with most of the icons and then using an unsharp mask to hide that as best as possible. Better that I should usually have to scale down loosing detail then scaling up in general.

The other problem was that these images where almost alsways surrounded by "dirt" or ground around the image as part of the artistic view of the icon but this is really not useful with Icons. We are sticking these on our maps and who knows what terrian we decide we want any given icon in? Icons should be "clean" capable of plopping in anywhere. I spent a lot of time erasing the "dirt" effect around these icons so that I could stick them on my map.

Otherwise a fine product.
