Urien

That sounds like a good start, but how are you going to distribute EXP during play. That's my chief concern for campaign longevity.

How did you come up with your 'handle' (forum name)? My favorite Knight of the Round Table (Urien is either a Knight or an Ally of Arthur, depending on the saga). I liked the portrayal of Urien from Excalibur (1980) the most. A person who did not give his allegiance easily, but when he did, he was loyal to a fault. What was the first tabletop RPG you Played? Red Box DnD (Mentzer). What was the first tabletop RPG you GMed? See Above What are you currently Playing/GMing? Savage Worlds. Looking at getting into Fantasy Hero. When did you start to play Hero? Early 90s 4th edition.

I hear you. Since it is been a while since Ive played Hero system, I'm still trying to get a rough feel for power levels. This helps!

I was thinking of tho option, but when I used it bak in the day with Fuzion everyone always seemed to think that meant you needed to buy everything to those levels to be effective. With the way the point system works in Hero System (no escalation in point value for the higher the ability), it means that it is pretty easy to reach those benchmarks.

The only reason I was thinking of getting FH Complete was so we could have a physical book we could reference at the table, since I only sadly have the PDFs. I really wish they could reprint the books in their full color glory...

I was interested in expanding and using "The Gift" in FH 5th and 6th editions. For the one mage in the party, who is considered a full-blooded sorcerer. NPCs would have their own lesser systems for the most part.

This is an interesting approach which I think I like. Do you award any individual points for any milestones or such, or is everything received through leveling?

Hi! I am considering starting a fantasy hero campaign. I have used hero system in the past for Super Heroes, but have never gone the fantasy route. I have always wanted to try a fantasy hero campaign, but I have a few questions I was hoping you might be able to answer for me before I begin, based upon your own experiences. 1) 5th or 6th Edition? I own both, but I only have 5th in dead tree version (I own both 6th edition core book PDFS, and a PDF of Fantasy hero). If I go with 6th edition, how is Fantasy Hero Complete? 2) Campaign life and Advancement. I like playing in campaigns that progress slowly over time. My typical campaign runs for several years. One of my bigger concerns for fantasy hero would be the linear experience point increases of characters, and the concern of a character getting to good to quickly. For anyone who has played in long term FH games, has this brome an issue, and if so what have you done to address it? 3) What supplements would you recommend? Ive listed the books I have here. Are there any others you would recommend? The world is largely a gritty lower powered medieval fantasy. I expect I;ll need to pick up the bestiary. Anything else? Thanks!
