RATINGS<\/strong><\/p>\n

Publication Quality<\/em>: 9 out of 10
\nPresentation of Layout<\/strong>: It is done in the traditional format of Rite Publishing. Most of the artwork is public domain which is also nice.<\/p>\n

Ease of Mobility<\/strong>: Files are nice and light, and easy to navigate. The bookmarks are off again, but it’s not a deal breaking issue.<\/p>\n

Mechanics<\/em>: 10 out of 10
\nMechanically this is a sound product. No one product is too overpowering, but at the same time, there is quite a lot of good stuff that can be used for casters and fighters alike.<\/p>\n

Value Add<\/em>: 10 out of 10
\nAll the items that are in this product are very well done! It is something that even I am considering in my future adventures and possible writings.<\/p>\n

Overall<\/em>: 10 out of 10
\nThe final verdict for this product is that I like it for both gaming purposes and for writing purposes. Although we cannot use the product for OGL purposes, it’s definitely good for the campaign writer in all of us.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
