Balabanto Posted June 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2014 Due to mapping and paper behavior, Dark Spire residential levels are now completed. So two keys and two object defense tables will now be on their way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balabanto Posted June 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2014 The Dark Spire Defense Levels map has been successfully keyed. On to it's object defense table. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheQuestionMan Posted June 5, 2014 Report Share Posted June 5, 2014 Layout and organization. Who is doing it this time? QM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balabanto Posted June 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2014 I don't know. Tom Rafalski is in charge of that. It's my guess that once everything is written, we will kickstart it and discover that as things go along. The good news is, the Defense Level Object Defense Table is complete.

TheQuestionMan Posted June 6, 2014 Report Share Posted June 6, 2014 Got an example? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balabanto Posted June 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2014 Of an object defense table? Object Defense Tables occur in all my products thanks to an edit provided in War of Worldcraft. Basically, every free-standing object that is mentioned in a map location is given a PD, ED, and BODY score. Update: It will either be Tom Rafalski or Bill Keyes, depending on scheduling.

Balabanto Posted June 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 The map key for the Dark Spire Residential Levels has been completed. Object Defense Table tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balabanto Posted June 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2014 The Object Defense Table for the Resdiential Levels is completed. On to the Library Levels and the Command Level. The Command Level has another name, which is cooler... Godprison Level. Yeah. The Oligarch can imprison a god. Pretty cool, huh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balabanto Posted June 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2014 The Library Level map, key, and object defense table are complete. These levels are meant to be "stackable." You should be able to arrange Defense Levels, Residential Levels, and Library Levels in whatever order you like in order to "fill up" the Dark Spire in your game. On to the Godprison Level. Where would I be without you guys? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balabanto Posted June 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2014 The command level map is complete. One object defense table left in the dark spire. 3 more maps to go after that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balabanto Posted June 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2014 The map to the Dark Spire is complete! On to the object defense table! Currently we rest at 240 pages and 116892 words. Once the maps are done, it's on to writing fluff. There are three maps left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balabanto Posted June 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2014 Object Defense Table completed. Three maps left to go. Then I can write the rest of this thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balabanto Posted June 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2014 The map of the cult caves has been completed. A key and an object defense table will be on their way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balabanto Posted July 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 We are on to the object defense table for the Cult Caves! After that, New Blackburn. Then PTAH Underground Response Team headquarters! Then all the fluff and info sections! I apologize, but there's no way in the Center of the Earth for this thing to be ready by Gencon.

Balabanto Posted July 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 I finished the map of New Blackburn tonight and finished the Cult Caves object defense table. The New Blackburn map is going to be a little different. It's going to have 36 locations that are set, and about 10-15, based on what my head can come up with, that the GM will place themselves! Dare to be different, I say. The Hero System is a toolkit! So our supplements should be too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balabanto Posted July 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2014 The New Blackburn Map Key is finished, along with 8 optional locations that the GM may place on their own. Sorry I didn't make it to ten, guys. On to the object defense table for New Blackburn, and the PTAH Underground Response Team headquarters thereafter!

Balabanto Posted July 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 Object Defense Table Completed. Underground Response Team headquarters! Away we go! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balabanto Posted July 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2014 Underground Response Team Headquarters mapped! Over the next few days, we will key it and object defense table it. Then it's off to writing all the additional text and information. I estimate a completion time of early October. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balabanto Posted August 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2014 Well, we're down to the last map, and a minor obstacle has come up. I have a choice to make, and I'd like your help in making it, everyone. Here it is. Would you prefer to design your own underground vehicles with a sentence that reads "Choose vehicles appropriate to the campaign?" or would you prefer a smattering of underground exploration vehicles that look like they stepped out of Fantastic Four and Challengers of the Unknown? I'll take all votes within 24 hours and compile them. Understand that if you wish option B, it will delay publication of this product by 20-30 additional days. While it's not going to make it to Gencon anyway, I would like to know what my fans demand! So demand away! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Baker Posted August 6, 2014 Report Share Posted August 6, 2014 I'd love to see some vehicles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balabanto Posted August 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2014 The final map and object defense table have been completed. I will compile all your votes after 24 hours and if the decision is vehicles, I will begin building them right away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmjalund Posted August 6, 2014 Report Share Posted August 6, 2014 FF or for a variant - something steampunk-esque Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh Neilson Posted August 6, 2014 Report Share Posted August 6, 2014 Come on, Balabanto - are you REALLY going to be happy leaving a piece of the book out? Either include sample vehicles (my preference - make it complete - you've already done a huge amount of work!), or make them an extra for the Kickstarter.
