I believe the first thing I ever did when I got access to spreadsheet software was try to use it to track RPG stats. Of course, at the time I was too young to really understand RPG stats either...

Visicalc would like to have a talk with you! (Unless you mean from the get go and not from this issue)

This is true but also, Fighter, Cleric, Rogue, Wizard are the "classic" core classes, so I think that may also have been part of the decision (especially in a deliberate throwback module).

Only if one player can only advance in levels by badly misunderstanding Chaos Theory and making endless philosophical speeches about it.

This is a good point. And to some extent in my brief time learning to DM so far it seems like even if you do have a solid story, you need to be prepared to players to attempt to upend it somehow. "Emergent gameplay" is the buzzword of the day and it actually defines a few video games I love.

Interesting. I like Lost Mines of Phandelver a lot because it has those story hooks but also opens up a bit later to allow players some choice. I'm new to DMing (and, uhh, hadn't played D&D in a long time), but I managed pretty well with it. Thanks for noting the change in style.

In planes. Which they are flying themselves. Must be done this way.

Could the Spikehead be a reference to the Mugato from Star Trek?

I forget that the "men's armor/women's armor" thing can be played just as badly with "men's space suit/women's space suit."

Using someone else's trademark or registered trademark in the promotion (advertising, title, obvious copy on the cover a book, etc,) of your own competing product can be a serious no-no. I'm not sure if this case would qualify, because I am not a lawyer.

That sounds great. You should put up a gallery of them somewhere.

Amen to this. In many forms of art.

Is there even a way to get that legally still? I tried contacting two emails at the publisher and one was a boilerplate redirecting me to email other addresses and the other said the address I tried to contact didn't exist. EDIT: Ignore, looks like it's still at DriveThruRPG.
