Ever find yourself drowning in the ocean of text of some powers or magic items? And miss that one word that changes how the entire thing works? Or found flavor descriptions severely lacking? Wish there was a better way to both view and read power and magic item cards?
As I told Robert J. Schwalb in his excellent The Burden’s On You:
This happens a lot with us. You’re absolutely right about 4e’s precision. It’s so easy to miss out on a specific part of a wall of text of rules. Often, that one short sentence changes the dynamics, utility and power level of something altogether.
I often wish 4e’s powers, feats and similar features had bulleted information for easier “decoding.” Prose and walls of texts is not a good fit for 4e’s tactical complexity.
Whether it’s for D&D 4e or 5e, the quest for more efficient formatting and more inspiring text on power and magic item cards begins now!
