Hey folks, I just got a crash course in Eberron this weekend at
Winter Fantasy. I was lucky enough to play with Keith and he ran us
through a very interesting adventure, that sadly there was not
enough time to finish. I have to say, it really is an interesting
world that I can't wait to learn more about. Funny thing is, my
group had gone to Winter Fantasy just to check it out with no
intentions of playing.
The best things I liked about Eberron (aside from Keith doing a
Stellar job at Dm'ing us) were the Artificer and the action points
(in addition to the setting itself).
I didn't have time to really read in detail about the artificer, but
they really are a great support to other player characters and are
awesome to have in your party.
The action points really were a great thing. Being that we were only
playing for a few hours and knew we had no chance of continuing, we
had the opportunity to blow them at will and really see the effects.
Let's just say they came in very handy when a very important Bluff
role came up a little short. They really can have the effect of
having everyone cheer.
Well.....I'm off to peek around the message boards.
