AndyM Posted August 15, 2003 Report Share Posted August 15, 2003 Hi. Keith Curtis sent this to me and I thouhgt that I'd post it. (Thanks Keith!) If you're SOB preview map looks bad -- here's what you need to do. In Acrobat 5 (I am not sure if this works in 4 or not). Go to Preferences and then to Display. About 1/2 way down, you'll see "Smoothing". Make sure that Use CoolType is on and also check the "Smooth Line Art" box. That should fix any display problems you might be having. In the final release of SOB, I'll try and see if I can save this preference "on". Thanks -- Andy Mathews Art Director, Hero Games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pattern Ghost Posted August 15, 2003 Report Share Posted August 15, 2003 Probably Shades of Black, a PDF supplement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nato Posted August 15, 2003 Report Share Posted August 15, 2003 Cool, that does look a lot better. Right on. Great job on the map Keith. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Obvious Posted August 15, 2003 Report Share Posted August 15, 2003 I was wondering what SOB meant myself. After eliminating the most obvious answer, I was thinking "Sons of the Batman", and I knew Hero wasn't throwing around the kind of bucks it would take to license something like that.... Shades of Black looks pretty nice... I always liked Black Paladin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monolith Posted August 15, 2003 Report Share Posted August 15, 2003 Originally posted by Captain Obvious Shades of Black looks pretty nice... I always liked Black Paladin. I think it is a very good module. I am just starting to run it now from the playtest (I needed some proper setup time and to finish my other scheme), but I loved reading it. Allen thought of just about everything for the GM when he wrote it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mastermind Posted August 15, 2003 Report Share Posted August 15, 2003 It is perfect for my campaign as Black Paladin is going to be a reoccuring nemesis! What supp is Talisman in ? Champions or Champions Universe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nato Posted August 15, 2003 Report Share Posted August 15, 2003 Talisman is in the Champions genre book. I'm definitely going to be using BP in my game as soon as I can. I'm now a big fan! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keithcurtis Posted August 16, 2003 Report Share Posted August 16, 2003 Originally posted by Nato Cool, that does look a lot better. Right on. Great job on the map Keith. Thanks. I was horrified when I first saw it. Then I started messing around with the pref.s Thank goodness. Originally posted by Monolith I think it is a very good module. I am just starting to run it now from the playtest (I needed some proper setup time and to finish my other scheme), but I loved reading it. Allen thought of just about everything for the GM when he wrote it. I love the way Allen writes an adventure. Only DC Heroes used to have modules so GM-friendly. Allens' are even better. There are some very good ideas, like putting rule page references with each fight that might use an unfamiliar maneuver or power. A list of skills and how each migh be used to advantage in the scenario. Ways to speed up, slow down or re-route the action. Well done, Allen! Keith "Too bad I don't run Champions anymore..."
