One of my players has volunteered to handle software maintenance and spammers for me -- the two things that really killed previous board attempts. The board is being setup this weekend.Randallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13879930955049101533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6707455220399106053.post-36600860367528119892012-08-23T21:48:45.870-04:002012-08-23T21:48:45.870-04:00@Silver Fox: I've currently thinking about goi...@Silver Fox: I've currently thinking about going both ways on attributes: either 4 attributes and optional rules for 6 or 6 attributes with optional rules for 4. However, that would make saving throws harder to handle in the spell, monster, and treasure lists.

Some thoughts:<br /><br />At first blush, I'm excited by the idea of having the 6 standard attributes, but I wonder how much of that is just driven by nostalgia. I like the 4 attributes in M74 Extended, and they work well, so I guess I'd have to see how using 6 affects the game before passing judgment.<br /><br />As for experience, anything that maintains the old school feel of slower advancement is a positive for me.<br /><br />I'm so glad that you're going to do M74 Plus; I can't tell you how exciting it was to see your post. I'm sure I speak for many when I say that your efforts, time and care in these projects are deeply appreciated.Silver Foxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15547763600232191918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6707455220399106053.post-2036121070475121392012-08-21T10:35:15.817-04:002012-08-21T10:35:15.817-04:00very good! very good!
