This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

There is a bit of a debacle on the art going on. It looks like one artist dropped out, and a replacement artist (who uses the poses art) was brought in. Unfortunately, that artist seems to have used art from other places :rolleyes:

Ah well, hopefully it can be fixed before print, which will be good given the poser art (though in the minority) is of poor quality.

Good grief...

 "The salient fact of American politics is that there are fifty to seventy million voters each of whom will volunteer to live, with his family, in a cardboard box under an overpass, and cook sparrows on an old curtain rod, if someone would only guarantee that the black, gay, Hispanic, liberal, whatever, in the next box over doesn't even have a curtain rod, or a sparrow to put on it."

Hey the Alchemical is still sporting the thong.

OMG the soggy knees!

Eh, after glancing through it, can't say I am a fan of the artwork. Doesn't seem Exalted to me. Still like the layout though.

Well, here's some stats

Quote from: Rich H;194944972) At 659 pages I'm not sure how practical the hard copy will be to read and/or refer to so wish they'd have kept the size down. You'll be able to spot the Exalted hardcopy core book owners at conventions though; they'll all have biceps the size of the Blessed Isle!

3) There's nigh on 250 pages of charms, martial arts and sorcery mechanics.

Its really petty of me but after some of the crap flung at Hot Chicks by that ground that E3 turned up poser art of a feast of Schadenfreude.




Edit: And yes, there is griping about the girl being "Mostly naked".

Quote from: Gizmit;19494618To repost what I said Backstage:

Woman in the back just emigrated from GURPS 4th edition's Magic book, and the woman hiding under the cakes is scared that she's going to spend 20 minutes calculating one second of combat.

When in doubt, take a cheap shot at another system.

Particularly ironic considering E3 "speedy" combat system.

And apparently the layout is good, nice even but its not the Second Coming that's going to redefine rpg book layout for all time like it was hyped.

I do wonder just how many of the mods work or freelance for OP.
