The Compass of Celestial Directions, Vol. VI - Autochthonia [SUBSCRIPTION]
Publisher: White Wolf
by Michael B. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 05/15/2011 13:11:01

For the record, I've only gotten to read volume 1 right now, but, as long as the rest of the book hews to the same quality, it's easily going to be the best of the Compass Books.

More specifically, the only problem I had with the book is that the first part of chapter 1 consists of a condensed version of some 1e information, when I was hoping to get an expanded version of the same information. However, it was a very good condensation, which didn't lose any meaning and manged to clarify a few things as well. Given the wordcount issues involved I can't blame anyone for this, especially since they've added sidebars in at various points in the book to give further info about life in Autochthonia and other tidbits that add to the info from this section.

Everything else, from the rest of the first chapter about the tunnel folk and Voidbringers, to the chapter about Yugash and Claslat, is pure Orichalcum.

And I have every reason to believe that we're only getting started.

Preview of Nobilis: the Essentials, Volume 1

So, I've been considering whether or not I want to buy this game now. As such, I grabbed this preview. I liked the light tone, amusing and informative footnotes, and everything. It felt much like a Terry Pratchett Novel or the Webcomic Digger, which are both quite good. As a preview, it obviously lacks much more than cursory information on the setting and system, but it gives you enough to get the gist of things. It does include what looks like the full text of the new Lifepath system, which can help you figure out a personality for your character, and the various point costs and basic explanations to mechanically define your character, so it would be possible to build a fairly complete character with just this preview book. To actually play the game, you need the full copy though.

Reading through this, there's definitely enough material here that you should be able to decide whether or not you'll like the game based on this. Me, I've resolved to get it sooner rather than later.

This product got me interested in Infernals. I really liked it. The Heretic Charms are nifty.
