ReplyDelete#8 is going in the "to use" pile. Hell, I like the apes so much I have to add those bad boys to the campaign.
ReplyDeleteWhen is the PDF going to be ready?
it's fine, as long as we can agree that the reason for the crash helmet is to disguise the humanoid's identity and not for any other reason.
ReplyDeletea quick caveat: if a back-up motivation for the crash helmet was unanimously called for by the player group then I think "for style points" would be a credible and age-appropriate one.
