Over the last 2 weeks of playtesting Ash has written and sent out 20 versions of the Alpha so it has now moved the game officially into Beta with all new layout to better depict how the final book will look internally! This brings us one step closer to a final version.
All the Core Rulebook based stretch goals have also been completed which is huge for the game and means the timeline Ash had in mind for Core is speeding along.
🎨 Two New Classes - The Gunslinger & The Sage
Ash has also added two brand new classes to Legends of Akeroth as a thank you to everyone’s support:
⚔️ The Gunslinger - Precision, powder, and pure skill. The Gunslinger brings firearms and tactical expertise to the battlefield.
📖 The Sage - Knowledge is power. The Sage masters arcane secrets through the art of tarot.
Artwork for these classes is still in progress, but we wanted to give you an early look at the sketches:
