Gist is:<br />ACKS=AWESOME WIN. I might commit the heresy of taking it beyond 14th level, but otherwise, I think it's fantastic and it is just cleaned up enough to bring me back to the Old School.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7913319789564397699.post-64993361224818187242012-08-14T17:22:52.823-05:002012-08-14T17:22:52.823-05:00I've found ACKS to be exactly the level of awe...I've found ACKS to be exactly the level of awesome I needed to get me back into Old School gaming. I've flirted with the idea for nearly a year and a half, but the fact that none of the clones did enough to clean up my gripes kept me from it. ACKS is just great though. And with the Player's Companion's ability to make your own races and classes, I find it's infinitely customizable for individual campaigns. I'm probably going to work out something for 'Epic Level' ACKS past 14th level though because, well, as you say, I have planes to conquer!<br /><br />Oh, and in case you hadn't found out yet, yes, there is a Witch class which encompasses 3 or 4 different archetypes.

Since it's being Kickstarted, backer input might add the Witch to the list of classes (which was planned based on feedback from previous ACKS backers at the Autarch forums) or take another class in a witchy direction. Also the Companion will definitely have guidelines for making your own classes using the existing ones as examples.Tavishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08589149850152191198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7913319789564397699.post-3575768749033214972012-02-10T22:23:55.901-06:002012-02-10T22:23:55.901-06:00Erik,

I'm excited about it, and I've been reviewing it (and need to catch up this weekend with the next part... i need time damn it!) on my blog.<br /><br />and yes, there is another kickstarter for it with new classes and new spells.Tenkarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05159289652051155824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7913319789564397699.post-57846174383215664572012-02-10T22:01:52.048-06:002012-02-10T22:01:52.048-06:00I have been thinking of this one for a bit, a frie...I have been thinking of this one for a bit, a friend of mine picked it up and said good things about it.
