Big City #2- 3.5mil. stretch goal
I think they'll scrape it, and maybe even be in the foothills of 3.6 million.

How did this thing become so popular. Jesus, it's just a wall of text.

Sorry, can't be bothered. Decent GUI on websites is a prerequisite for me and Reddit is horrible to look at. Like I say, it's like the internet in 1996. But worse.

'tis horrible feels like something from the primal text-soup of the early interweb.

Discussion on thief class, could they do more in PE
Balance. Meh. The Rogue class shouldn't be a warrior-who-fights-differently. Which is what it's morphed into over the past ten years (qv Dragon Age). The Thief should be able to do a mixture of the following: * Be a skill monkey * Have specific combat strengths discrete to those of the fighter class (i.e. ranged or back-stab for example) * Be a reconnaissance expert * Play a specific locks and traps role * Be able, at high levels, to figure out how to use magic items This fairly vanilla rogue skillset has served games like D&D well for many years. It's not that broke, really, and doesn't need a lot of fixing.

Cats are simply the Recon element of a very patient Alien race.

Armour & weapon designs - a plea (part II).
Love the look of Asian armours --- check out this Rajput armour. But possibly my favourite movie 'fantasy' armour was from King Arthur --- I know they were Dark Ages an' all but I really liked their gear --- And it would have been tough for Mads Mikkelsen to get any cooler as Tristran, Ranger archetype that blows Aragorn out of the water....

* sigh * I told you all before, I *am* a lich. Have been for, ooooh, perhaps 780 years give or take a decade. Although I would generally not support the OP, as from personal experience I can tell you that being an ancient, undead, sould-devouring sorcerer of inestimable power is * seriously * overrated, this struck me as being of note: Thank you! At last. I tried to form GUoL (Greater Understanding of Liches) some years ago. What did we get? A regiment of bloody paladins besieging my tower! Bastards. Of course, none of them spotted the Sphere of Annihilation trap on the first level (I blame point buy systems for their uniformly low intelligence). It's as if people don't understand why becoming an immortal undead being isn't a world-threatening development (but give me another five hundred years). Anyhoo, must dash, my nose has fallen off (again) and I've run out of duct-tape.- Replaying Neverwinter Nights 2...

That statue has to be of Od Nua. If you are a mad megalomanicacal wizard then of course you would dominate the dungeon with a massive statue of yourself.- Countdown to Eternity.

IWD1- Mega Dungeon Level Size
I hope, and indeed suspect, that they incorporate a few dungeon rules in there: i.e. some dungeon ecology principles and dynamic population metrics.- How much Grimdark would you like in your P:E?

I will put up any Obz developer who agrees to make a London-based city as number two. I will take them on a unique adventure. They will see stuff that they won't forget for a while. Ask some of the moderators. They know I can deliver on that one.- Which tier did you choose?
