I am working on a Birthright campaign that I plan to run sometime early next year and I am going to incorporate the new Book of Nine Swords into the game. My plan is to make the martial classes only available to Blooded Characters (all PCs will be blooded) and the Swordsage class to elves. I really like the feel of this book and I think the martial classes will help distinguish blooded characters from non blooded characters. I understand that for game mechanics and balance the developers are trying to balance blooded and non blooded characters, but imo the two shouldnt be unbalanced (blooded people are better then non blooded). I am also incorporating some elements of Eberron so this is deffinately not a traditional Birthright Campaign, but it will still have a relatively low magic feel to it because the changes will be more of a variety in high end magic rather then making magic more pervasive. Just looking for some feedback and or any suggestions people have, especially suggestions as to any elements from Eberron that people think may fit and how. Thanks.
