Topic: hey, I have a few questions
Been looking over LotFP the last two days, and I definitely like the feeling it appears to be evoking, but I'm still really unsure about the quality of this product.
For instance, I say I picture someone took of the map that comes with it, and it looked like a bunch of brown and blue hexes of differing shades with what looked like nothing inside of them. Does the map contain anything?
Does the final release product contain any updates of the free download files? There definitely appears to be a lot of vagueness on quite a few things in it: for instance, it says Elves are both Fighters and Magic-Users, but it only talks about its Magic-User abilities in its class description. Also, what kind of limitations of equipment are there?
One question I suppose is more of a suggestion on design: I notice that Fighters start off with a +2 attack bonus while everyone else gets +1, and unarmored opponents have an AC of 12. Why not set the base AC to 11 and give Fighters +1, while everyone else gets no bonus? Or does that have to do with 0 lvl characters getting no bonus, and 1st level characters of any class are suppose to be better fighters than?
