And the 4e community encourages you to print your own power cards.I agree that 4e is nothing like a normal CCG.
For one thing, you have far more cards in your hand.![]()
If it was a CCG, you'd get scolded for "counterfeit" printing.
Definitely not a card game.
i.e. Wish I had a laugh button in mobile view :'(
Thanks, somehow forgot that. I did go to Catholic schools growing up, but I think it was a hair after the big "witch hunt against devils" thing. We did scare some teachers by fabricating stories of us using ouija boards after school. Two of our religion teachers were very superstitious. Man ... those were the days...2e got very politically correct, it avoided even using terms like Demon & Devil, and the art was all PG.
Oh, speaking of Politcal Correctness, I did have a friend in 2004 who was scared of the D&D taboo. But, then she switched colleges and became a goth. Somehow that happened.
Anyone else have stories of scaring people with D&D?
Based on how you described 2.0e and 2.5e, it sounds like the "Core 2e PHB" was back-compatible but all the splat / 2.5 wasn't. Seems like it's easy for people to get those versions mixed up. FWIW I was trying to compare PHBs only, since that is what 4e was originally judged on.Compatibility was pushing it. 2e didn't change much, at first, it eventually went pretty far afield.
But the 4.0 PHB didn't have many references to those, right? It had to be added later. Come to think of it, how many pictures of castles were in the 4e PHB versus 2e PHB? I don't remember any distinct castle pictures in 4e PHB, maybe I'm wrong. I'm pretty sure 2e had more castles.4e looked back to FR, Ebberon, & Dark Sun - the plan was a setting a year, it'd've done all of 'em, given time.![]()
Besides, we all know the 4e PHB presentation was the large issue. Rules were mostly fine, but most of my points were marks "against" 4th's PHB presentation. I guess people prefer the 2e PHB presentation better.
