Hey Caped Crusader, you doing ok? I mean coding wise, just in general lol. last thing you said here was in June, October in general and with the way the world is going... anyway, hope you are having a good holiday and I look forward to Savage Pathfinder.

Working on equipment now, my plan is to wrap it up in the quiet time between Christmas and the New Year.

So, this does indicate that HL is still developing* files for SW? Glad to hear it (No rush, just was not sure state of the "license*")

* I feel these are the wrong terms, but hopefully my intent is clear...

Yeah, my life has been interesting lately LOL.

Heya CapedCrusader, hope your holidays went better than your last post may have insinuated lol.

Oh, I'm working on Magic Items now.
The way they've set up Potions, Scrolls and Wands are going to be a problem. There are so many variables. You know those Modifications you can make as you cast a spell? Those can be baked into these magic items. Creating a detailed system to handle each possibility will be prohibitively expensive. I am working on doing a set by point total with a space for notes on details. I'm working on Wondrous Items now. Once those are done, all that should be left is Creatures. I've been working pretty steadily since the Christmas holiday. I have the general Weapon and Armor enchantments set up using the Modifications system we developed for the Sci-Fi Companion Melee Weapon modifications.

On the other hand...
I was taking a look at the SWADE Fantasy Companion update. They've adopted a lot of the Pathfinder material for the new one. Contruction Materials. That system for Scrolls.

On an odd note, I only see 3 different Wands, 5 different Staves, and 2 Rods in the new Fantasy Companion. With no open-ended rules for creating them, so that's all there is. And the lists of available Potions is much more limited.

Pathfinder has totally open-ended Potions, Wands and Scrolls. For the SWADE FC, only Scrolls do the same.

[CapedCrusader]

But yeah, looking at the SWADE FC update, that whole system for supporting magic items from the Deluxe Edition goes away. The update is much more limited, even more so than Pathfinder. We go from being able to apply literally any bonus, Edge, or Power on any item or weapon to a strictly defined list of available items and abilities. The only system that's open-ended now are the temporary items, and those go away as soon as their power points are spent.

eww. that sucks. I still need to buy the FC, I only recently found out it's been released on PDF.
