Poll #308 - What Helkara book should come first?
Added 2023-02-07 03:22:09 +0000 UTCHey all!
I hope you're having a lovely Monday evening. I was working alongside Rick and some of my other pals in this biz and started thinking to myself: would it make more sense to do a monster book first or the setting book?
On one hand, it's cool to have a full setting book out.
On the other hand, monsters are fairly campaign independent. And they can help me illustrate the world a bit better.
So, I'll put that question to all of you.
What should come first?

So if its not insane to brew some monsters i think the setting and lore has value even if we're using another system. The setting could be great either way. I'm happy with whatever, though. :)

2023-02-07 05:57:53 +0000 UTCI think most campaign books usually throw in a few monsters anyway so having a few key monsters in there gives us the best of both worlds. So far, everything I’ve read makes me imagine a Conan world feel. I never played the RPG so I’m talking Conan cinema. Cool stuff!

2023-02-07 03:42:37 +0000 UTCYeah as long as we have some monsters which we have already, I would rather have a campaign setting book first.
