[QUOTE="Verys Arkon, post: 4131175, member: 60891"] Hi David, thanks for the feedback. I can understand your perspective, and you are likely right that titles like these wont appear in the PHB (although I would wager that there is a fairly positive "Why a New Edition?" section in the preface). Usually I do my best to incorporate as many of the suggestions as I can that are posted in this thread, but like a dwarf in this instance, I'm going to stand my ground. A) As Fifth Element says, the text is a direct quote from the original source material from DDXP, and I'd like to keep as close as possible, where ever I can. B) The Pre-Release Rules Compendium, or PrRC (aka PHB-Lite), is based on Wizard's promotional material, or derived from it. It is unsurprising that the tone is therefore 'positive'. Further, I believe one reason this project has been allowed to continue is that it is a form of viral, fan-to-fan, marketing for 4e. Every time someone reads the PrRC, they are exposed to Wizard's promotional material in a way they may not have been if they had just used Wizard's website. The DDXP material isn't exactly the easiest to find there anyway. The PrRC is generating attention, discussion, excitement, and probably increasing fans' desires to finally get their hands on the full PHB. C) I am unabashedly biased towards 4e, and if it comes off as "cheer leading" then my first feat will be in Dual Wielding Pompoms. Cheers, Verys [/QUOTE]
