I did use the saved NPCs fairly often, but the ability to just 'goon' and 'henchman' NPCs in Ares might serve the purpose they mostly did. I suspect that for recurring big bads, I'll create a character object to use.

Yeah that's what I was thinking. You can even create additional NPC types beyond goon/henchman/miniboss/boss if you want to have more fine-tuned pre-set NPC types.

I used saved NPCs pretty regularly in the past edition, but I just figured I was a nutter, like usual. With Ares, we've used the ability to create additional NPC levels to provide set stats for various critters and beasties on T8S, without having to set them individually or anything like that. It's quite handy.

I am still kind of torn about this game. I kind of want to try it because Gany is just making me laugh about what is possible there, but I am still torn due to the lack of politics, and yet somehow it is still a L&L game... it confuzzles mah (admittedly not sober) brain.

Put it this way.

Sure, there are lords and ladies there. Everyone's a lord or lady. But it isn't a high fantasy setting. This is a medieval game.

Not all lords and ladies are first-born and ready to inherit land, or be married to solidify a deal. Many families have many heirs, and the ones whose estates aren't so grand, well, there's little to do but go adventuring. In this context, there's threats from all sides. There are faeries. And there's that Arthurian feel.

About the flagon? Yes. It's a magic flagon of panty-dropping. Seriously. Basically.

The game uses FS3, so it's easy to start up on. Activity tends to be higher on business hours EST and late CST.
