I've just been reading the messages of last week and came accross a
number of complaints about the practicality of the Blood Powers chart.
Furthermore there were some questions about using the Skills & Powers
system.
I agree that when using this system the racial points of demi-human races
have already been used. But the priests of the different faiths can be
accomodated in the system, by using the expanded rules in the magic
expansion book (sorry I forgot the name). some of the priesthoods have
points left to spend others will have to take some pretty hefty penalties.
I've been using Skills & Powers from the start in my campaign and I like
it becuase of the way the non weapon proficiencies are worked out.
Okay the players can generate pretty hefty characters, but I don't mind
that, the way I see it the Blood that runs through them is a
justification enough for a bit more powerful character.
Anyway since I'm an orderly kind of guy I've got an Excel 5.0 spreadsheet
with contains:
1) worked out blood powers tables for the Different
Derivations (BE included) these come in 2 formats the first is
sequential, the second a truly random listing
2) Tables of the spells of the different religions
3) Skills & Powers conversion of the Priesthood
4) And a lot more tables from the original setting.
If anyone is interested in this file they can mail me at:
