The new edition is based on 7 years of playtesting and feedback on the first edition. We started off with the intention of making a few tweaks like fixing the bow and wound up revising the entire game. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don&#8217;t worry! It hasn&#8217;t changed so much that your existing supplements will be useless, but we&#8217;ve clarified, revised, refined and expanded the rules. If you back at a tier that includes the <strong>Lore Master&#8217;s Manual<\/strong>, you&#8217;ll get tons of new material, some of which I know many of you have been clamoring for. It includes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>New class: the thief, go from a knife-wielding cutthroat to the shadowy power that rules this town<\/li><li>New class: &nbsp;the shaman, fueled by the Immortals of Beasts, channeling their wild power<\/li><li>New stock: the Troll Changeling; they&#8217;re part troll, part human and all trouble<\/li><li>New conflicts: Banish, Abjure, Bind and Battle<\/li><li>New settlements like Borderland Fortress, Shire and Walled Town<\/li><li>Lots and lots of gear in a comprehensive list<\/li><li>Rules for making base camps\u2014good for tackling those megadungeons.&nbsp;<\/li><li>Economic rules so you can crash the economy of your town<\/li><li>Travel rules<\/li><li>Simple guidance on town adventures<\/li><li>More spells and invocations<\/li><li>More monsters!<\/li><li>Wild new rules for spiritual quests&nbsp;<\/li><li>And more!&nbsp; &nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Join us in this adventure and you&#8217;ll score some fabulous loot!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello friends!
