My overly long Ptolus review! Part two... ( DnD 5e and Cypher System)
Ойындар
Ptolus, the City by the Spire, is an incredibly large tome filled with everything you'd expect a city guide to have and much more. It's available for Dungeons and Dragons 5th edition and the Cypher System. More info right here:

This setting looks like an amazing one to explore for sure.
Definitely looking out for more Ptolus videos. It's a setting that deserves more attention.
I'm so pumped to see Ptolus getting more attention. It's been a part of my life since 3.0 launch and I can't get enough of it.
Buying this book also introduced me to the Cypher System. I've been watching your many Cypher System videos and you've got me itching to try it!
Re: The Table of contents... In the downloadable digital extras there are a 20 page expanded index and a 25 page expanded index. They're invaluable if you want to read the physical book but can use a tablet on those pdfs, but also... you get fewer false-positive hits searching them vs. the main book's pdf.
Looking forward to the next part!
Nice review Henrik looking forward for the next one.
Ptolus is one of thr coolest setting books. I definitely want to pick it up when i can afford it
So much good stuff in this book. I want more people to know about it so they go ahead and do a VTT for this. Also, hey, we need more people to know about it so Players know to ask for this, then all the players can put in $20 and the DM can read it and run it!
Looking forward to the deep dive!

Cool, that's what I'm hear for. That said, I don't think anybody could ever be dissapointed with this.

I've had this book for a while and I was intimidated by the size of it on my book shelf. Now that this series is running, I'm reading it. Amazing how much you can get out of a book. I can tell the issue is to edit things down so it fits your player's characters more closely. Some things are constant... Like the Delver's Guild, but you can drop a couple other factions into the background and never really encounter them. The city is just so big.
If you roll Research you can get Ptolus at a very less expensive price from other sources.
It is painful knowing that I simply can't afford a $150 book. Yet, I totally want the Cypher system copy. I'm still a bit behind on my Cypher books as it is.
I have the old 3.5 edition of this book and my campaign for it back in the day was one of my favorites I have ever run. Is there a particular version of Cypher you would recommend for Cypher system version?
