I'm excited about the idea. Personally, I prefer the pixelated textures to the realistic ones. I think once you introduce any higher resolution graphics into an otherwise pixelated environment it creates a clash. Also, the pixels help maintain that old school charm of IceBlink. I do like the Talespi...

That works, it sounded good!

I enjoyed this episode a lot. The fight with the goblin mages was fun. When Trumpkin was trying on the boots, I couldn't tell if you were checking the modifiers added up correctly. Dwarves get a +2 strength bonus. So his hammer is + 2, and +2 for being a dwarf. That was the +4 before even equipping ...

Hey, slowdive, when I went to watch the video I can only see the introduction image. I can hear your commentary throughout as you are playing, but no video. It just stays on the static Hearkenwold castle picture.

Poll Question: In my streams, do you like having the d20 screen up to see the needed roll and the outcome or do you prefer the faster paced combat by skipping the d20 screen (asking for a friend :lol: )? When I first saw the d20 screen, I thought it was neat. It definitely fits with creating a pen ...

Thanks, Pongo. I was testing yesterday, and there are some fights I think can get pretty challenging. As is the nature of an open design, a big factor is the level of the party when they enter this area. No shame in characters finding themselves in over their heads and running off to come back later.

Great to see the continuation of this stream. The party will start to run into some more dangerous enemies from this point, that was a fun battle against the hellhounds. Trumpkin's well-timed critical hits really helped.

Thanks, slowdive! I like the shadow effect of the raised tiles, because on a 2d map, it helps distinguish walls from floors. However, the height mapping does have collision, and when you make bridges or balconies, players have to access those higher (or lower) tiles via a ramp or stairs. The one sma...

April Update I must have been motivated last month, because I was able to get a lot done in the recreation of Edinmoor as part of the Hearkenwold campaign. This includes two maps of mountain wilderness as well as the second dungeon featured in the adventure. I am starting on the concluding areas, b...

Knights of the Chalice 2 releases officially on Steam and gog this Friday, March 25.

I have uploaded one more video to showcase the Hearkenwold adventure module. An encounter in the Dwarven Halls of Hamhock, when the party stumbles across a group of conspiring monsters.
