Outstanding effort!

Hero_Of_Retro wrote:1st four quests uploading. :) The txt in the boxes im a little concerned about.. too small to read??? ...

The published EU Quests use a maximum of approximately 21 lines (including spaces) from the the space above the NOTES header to the wandering monster line. If you choose, you can maybe extend that by 1 or 2 lines at the bottom. Since everybody seems to want booklet form, I'd say let that be your guide where font size is an issue.

To fit that limit, try some of the same tricks found in RotWL. You can save 2 lines by calling out your named monsters in the previous text rather than as a tile bar. You can save 4 lines if you list the stats for that named monster horizontally rather than vertically. Use half spaces (reduce the font size of space lines) between sections and you can save a couple of more lines. If all else fails, cut out some of the fat in the text itself.

And use two columns of text instead of one, like in the original booklets ;)

Thank you. :D And thanks for the advice. :) I have a few more edits in all the quests to do after they are all done. The nightmare lord will be more prominent, especially in the secret levels, and the nightmare minions and elites, will be in quite a few quests aswell. Made this decision a little while ago, and seems quite fun to have another group that constantly comes after the champions in several levels. 1 elite with a few minions, until they are all killed. If none are killed by the end quest.. well.. will be a tough few end bosses. :P

Still waiting on my brother to do some card art for me. :(

In the meantime, ive gone through each quest, sorted more little errors, like open doors, to normal doors, exit in and out doors, put in the healing tile into some of the quests, and again redid the beginning of the manual. Spelling errors and have taken out a few things i may not actually need to use, removed. :)

After photocopying the standard quest sheet, and it having left black marks at the top, i redrew the blank quest sheet. :)

I cannot help but think people who use the UK rules are hillbillies.

Ok, removed all the images for this quest, they have all been redone, sorted out. (Well.. from what ive noticed what needs sorting so far!) I will get the booklet up very shortly. Booklet is now pretty much 99% complete, the quests, hidden quests, stats for the monsters done, evil players side quest, miniatures almost complete, i am still looking for a suitable monster to fit the 1st form of the Nightmare Lord. Morcar/Zargon stand in has been completed.

Soon.. Soon!

Nah, don't think so. The sarcasm tag spoils things, too. It should be called spoiler tag, but we have something called that already.

OK, but this is my first derailing a thread since I got the title under my nick. Go research.
