Well, the simplest way to handle the situation, to my mind, would be
to cut some more items off of the list. Remove the Silver Helmet,
Silver Bracers, Kagonite Chainmail and the Korlinium Scabbard at Book
13. Then remove the Dagger of Vashna and Helshezag at Book 17.
Advise the Veteran players to add 10 to their base CS, subtract 1 from
their base EP and conduct all further play as a normal Grandmaster. I
would add that Curing replace the bit about "steady restoration of
Endurance" with "restore 1 EP per section when not losing EP or in
Combat."
Cant tell if youre serious :/
Dropping more special items off the list would be a bad idea - I would
consider it a significant enough change that someone who had read the
paperback grandmaster books would look at our version and go "WTF? didnt
I use to be able to take more items than this?"
Ive never really understood the whole add 10, subtract 1 logic ... Im
assuming this is the difference between a veteran player with all lore
circle bonuses and the new Grandmaster stats (+25/+30), in which case
that is a flawed methodology as it assumes that the veteran player has
successfully completed every Magnakai adventure. Far better to say "take
your basic stats (ie ignoring any lore-circle and item bonuses) and add
15 to CS and 10 to EP - this has the same effect but caters for veteran
players who havent completed everything.
