Just bought it! The quality of this is very high. A good 70% is
immediately useful and I was impressed with the character stats
layout. I thought the two pages spent on tribal rings could have been
left out in favour of the clan questionairre and perhaps a few tables
generating how many steads, what shrines you have, how many cows, etc.
Quite a few questions were answered by this product. I was amazed
that priests charged for rituals and the basic currency was the
chicken!. It also posed other questions...
- Towns were mentioned a few times. Are they..
- Big steads that got bigger?
- Some sort of fort that, say, protected a crossroads that attracted
a settlement?
- A small city?
- None of the above.
- I'm assuming that if there are towns similar to ones we know then
you will be living amongst those who aren't kin. Who is your boss?
- Is the creation of a town a need to concentrate resources on
manufacture in a certain place?
- If No 3 is correct do you look to your guild here?
- Temples seem to be a second tier of authority seperate from
kinship. Are towns one of those road side temple complexes mentioned
in a post a couple of weeks ago?
- With hero and religious bands wandering willy-nilly over the land
do you get seasonal worker's bands?
Cheers,
Tom
