Eidetic Memory provides a bonus to all tests made to recall information, which includes Book Memory tests, as well as Knowledge tests.Dougansf wrote:What's the difference between Book Memory and Eidetic Memory?
Because I can imagine not needing Book if you already have Eidetic.

Re: High Circle Preview: Nethermancer
Yes, it can be done later, if the character wishes. (Not sure why you would wait... I mean... 1 Blood Magic for +1 Step to a key Attribute? Kind of a no-brainer.) Thing is, not every Discipline gets one of those bonuses. (For example, the Archer doesn't -- they get Blood Bound Bow.) So having some k...

Re: High Circle Preview: Nethermancer
@Rags This could be a wording re-adjustment based on the feedback they've gotten here. If that's the case, I think the things that are still missing is (A) whether this is optional [who wouldn't, but still] as implied by the "Adept can " start, and (B) must it be done immediately at Advancement? Ye...

Re: High Circle Preview: Troubadour
Encore says "abilities." To be clear, that includes Talents, correct? I'm guessing this is just a verbiage issue. "Abilities" probably means both Talents and Skills. Letting something just improve Talents isn't a huge deficit as, honestly, seems like most players don't flesh out their characters wi...

Re: High Circle Preview: Nethermancer
I'd be interested to hear what the thought on that was. I can easily see why you wouldn't want to offer both free matrices as Enhanced + Armored; that would make the 'cost' of spells with base thread 1 much less punitive. However, if matrix-damaging Talents/Spells/Abilities are a bit more common in...

Re: What happened to Aardelea?
That's not a bad idea, and certainly workable in your Barsaive.Spader wrote:Funny, I always thought Aardelea was the true story behind "The Harwood Incident".
I thought the caravan was, in fact, a rescue party bringing Aardelea back to Icewing's lair.

Re: Beyond Barsaive
Thanks Lys! I knew some of that information, but that was helpful. Regarding Cathay though, is that still Canon? I got the impression from Panda's blog that he was less than impressed with it and wonder if it survived to the 4th edition. Morgan's not the final word, I am. :D That said, I don't have...

Re: High Circle Preview: Nethermancer
There are no additional free matrices, or changes to existing ones, that happen at higher Circles for magicians. (Except Wizard, who get the Split Matrix ability at Circle 9 -- though it now makes the split matrix a Shared matrix, rather than limit it to just 2 spells and costs Blood Magic instead o...
