Blackguards is an entertaining game and traditional role players will love many of its mechanics. The game could have been used to restore part of the essence of the great RPGs that were released during the early years of the last decade, but would require a story influenced by the decisions of the player and a good artificial intelligence. 1–2: Smite good 1/day. (This is in addition to the ability granted to all blackguards at 2nd level. 3–4: Lay on hands. Once per day, the blackguard can use this supernatural ability to cure himself or his fiendish servant of damage equal to his Charisma bonus x his level. 5–6: Sneak attack damage increased by +1d6. Smite good 2/day. Use the special ability 'Slam' of the dwarf, then this should be no problem. After the fight provides you the dwarf as 'Naurim' before and your party gets further growth in the form of a magician whose magic was blocked by a ruff. A little tip on the side: hold fast the torch.
