Quote from: S'mon on November 29, 2024, 06:56:20 AMJust purchased - this is actually my first Pundit purchase, I think. On a quick look through, for my 3 pounds sterling it is a bit vague/generic, I'd have preferred specific detailed locations with some named NPCs with stats & personalities, some specific location maps, places with individual flavour and their own plot hooks. It seems more a location generator than a set of specific locations.

Hmm, well, the point was to create guidelines for generic set-pieces as GM tools, with the random tables adding more specific details. But I was trying to balance between stuff that would work generally and repeatedly, without putting things too specific that they would make it less useful as an ongoing tool.

I'm sorry if my description above gave the wrong impression. I try to make all the Pundit Files books be as useful as possible in what they're meant to do, and of course there are some issues of the Pundit Files that are very specific, to particular settings, adventures for settings, or to certain cultural folklore.

Thanks for the response. Yeah I may find it useful, but it's less inspirational than I was hoping. I was hoping for basically set-piece modules I could drop into a campaign setting.
