A Magical Medieval Society: Western Europe
Publisher: Expeditious Retreat Press

Nothing more should be said on this excellent product. It is a must-have for any serious DM running "verisimilitude" medieval campaigns.<br><br> <b>LIKED</b>: There is as much deeply descriptive text as there are tables and practical rules to implement the background information. City layout, economic simulation, estate production yields and financial benefits, can be neatly and easily computed using the methods provided in the book.<br><br><b>DISLIKED</b>: The influence point system to define the influence centers in a city is not so well explained and does not seem completely self-consistent. However you can easily work yourself around this flaw.<br><br><b>QUALITY</b>: Excellent<br><br><b>VALUE</b>: Very Satisfied<br>

Arms & Armor v3.5
Publisher: Bastion Press
by Benoit B. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 08/03/2006 00:00:00

This book contains so many enhancements to weapons and armor that it will keep the PCs (or the monsters) on the edge for years of game play.

The product is well-structured and is easy to use, being based on self-explanatory tables and alphabetical lists of descriptions.

It is a pity that the art of the PDF does not print properly, it is all "bitmap-blurred". It is also a pity that the book does not expand on weapons in order to propose a rule such as the old "adjustment to hit AC" of the 1st edition ADD: nowadays people choose their weapons for the greatest threat range or critical multiplier, but historically weapons were designed to fight specific armors. Modifiers for each weapon against each armor might be painful to use in a basic game, but it would definitely add flavor. This product could have provided such a system, it is a pity it does not.<br><br> <b>LIKED</b>: Huge choice of properties, allowing unlimited inspiration and countless surprises.<br><br><b>DISLIKED</b>: No weapon speicalization against armors Poor quality of printed artwork in the PDF<br><br><b>QUALITY</b>: Very Good<br><br><b>VALUE</b>: Very Satisfied<br>
