I’m working on my campaign front, and somehow the grim portents just don’t feel … right. They feel kinda boring even though there is progress. Would some of you being willing to take a look at them and offer some suggestions or critiques? This is my first time filling out the campaign front.

I don’t quite get hirelings. I understand that the GM gets a certain number if points to distribute among a main skill, any number of secondary skills, loyalty, and cost. It says you can distribute between 1 and 10 points. Why do they get such a high potential modifier? How does cost work?
