However, I do find that BoL characters often end up fairly alike -- since each chooses four previous careers, everyone ends up with a similar "rogue with a checkered past" (former beggar, gladiator, slave, pirate, etc). But I guess the idea is that everyone is playing a barbarian, just as in <i>H+I</i> everyone is playing a swashbuckler. <br /><br />I'll be interested to hear more about your actual play experience.Matthew Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17343263539473683579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4930065815010914887.post-57237294757114274442012-07-12T12:26:59.673-07:002012-07-12T12:26:59.673-07:00It is - we've been on hiatus the last couple o...It is - we've been on hiatus the last couple of months as May and June are just crazy-busy in our household.
