--[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] 20:23, 22 July 2007 (MDT) I am considering playing Jacob again, but reboot his class and skills to fix up some of the "random roll" problems. Not attached to the idea as he might make an interestin NPC also and depending on the hook of the game. One request: can we start out as more advanced characters, say around the level of our old characters. I find the skills open to "level 1" characters constrained. suppose it might depend on what the hook was that would determine how experienced the characters ''should'' be. A band of seasoned adventurers vs a bunch of peasants. I think that Ben's prologue idea was a good one if you want to start out the hook as a group that has been together for a longer time, likely with different mechanics, and I liked Gabes idea of the "once upon a time" card game (I have a set as well). For a newly formed group, obviously that's not appropriate. | --[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] 20:23, 22 July 2007 (MDT) I am considering playing Jacob again, but reboot his class and skills to fix up some of the "random roll" problems.

--Dieter the Bold 17:58, 22 July 2007 (MDT) As fun as it is for the players to drive the plot and have freedom to do as they will, I'd like to see some more stringent (than ever before) controls during character creation, in terms of backgrounds. I enjoy interplay and tension between group members as it can lead to awesome and exciting sessions, but I don't like complete loggerheads and constant scheming at cross-purposes that leads to PvP. I'd really like the group to choose some kind of focus, quest, job-type, etc. and have everyone be 100% for at least most aspects of it. I'd like to be involved in some over-arching story that had a definite starting and ending point, although not necessarily only one path to get between the two. I'm down playing any class that fits with whatever the group decides on. I'm fine with Matt's attribute and class set-up, and I'm intrigued and positively inclined to his Spirit system.

You could assume a similar rate of progression as the last WHFRP game.
