Dragonbane BETA Rulebook Feedback - Chapter 1 Introduction

Wed 30 Nov 2022, 11:47

Hi!

Please use this thread to post feedback and report any typos or errors in chapter 1 of the BETA PDF of the Rulebook Dragonbane. Guidelines to remember:
  • Before reporting an error, please check and see if it already has been reported, and if so, don't report it again.
  • If you feedbacked on something in the Quickstart but it's not changed in the BETA, it's not because we missed it - it's because we made a different assessment. (Typos are a different thing.)
  • Please report your feedback no later than January 31.
Thank you!

Page 10 Halfling (lower) part, in the "Ability: Hard to catch" box.
The word Mobility can and should (in my opinion) not be extended over two rows. There is plenty room to have it on the 4:th row in the box.

The Preface section in the English PDF is in Swedish. :) Back with more if I find them.

I also have the English Beta that shows the Swedish as the Preface and not English.
Also, could you please consider converting the measurements/distances/weights into English Standard as opposed to European Metric system? It's easily done online, but it would be nice to have it already there.
Finally, on the Initiative cards, is there a way to reduce or eliminate text in favor of a short statement about swapping?
Thank you! It's great so far!

It’s just a placeholder text in fake latin.

p. 5, The Players section
Later chapters use the abbreviation "PCs" for "player characters" (pp. 34, 109, 111), but this abbreviation is not defined here (whereas the "GM" and "NPCs" abbreviations are both defined here).

Suggestion: on p. 5, change this…
These individuals are called player characters.
…to this:
These individuals are called player characters, or PCs.

It’s defined in the ‘Abbreviations’ sidebar on page 6.

It's a lorem ipsum.

BETA_221129 - Chapter 1 - In the Oldest Times
P5, The Players Section: Should add ", or PC for short" to match the gamemaster section and links to the abbeviations sidebar on page 6 (possible continuity issues for rest of document)
P6, Rolling Dice Section, Skill Rolls paragraph: Use of "best" and "worst" result is ambiguous/subjective, should specify "highest" and "lowest" instead
P7, Start Playing Section, Point 2: Should specify chapter number, ie. (see Chapter 2)
P7, Optional Rules Sidebar: "in green" is irrelevant or 1st sentence should be reworded - Optional rules are detailed in green sidebars.
P7, Measuring Time Sidebar: Paragraph should be a single column for ease of reading
