Dismissing the OGL is under-inflating it. Sure someone else, might MIGHT have come along. But someone else didnt work in the OGL on a product called Iron Heros which one can argue is more akin to a proto-type to 4e then it was to its forebearers.

I can tell you that, after listeningto Games Workshop's logic and reasoning that that logic they threw out there is just an excuse, not the reason. They have a game that bsically REQUIRES you to use minis- movemnet, powers in squares, etc....and now they dont have the miniatures. I...

You do know they canceled several products and the entire minitaure line right?

Quite a bit of reimaging, making things match to their pathfinder rules, stream line the skills, an entirely new world to fill out. Quality adventures. Intergrate other folks ideas and monsters into their system via OGL. Pretty much everything WOTC never did. But you already knew that. What...

I would include FLGS as well in that catagory of entitlement. Apparantly you and others think we should go and just fork over money to support FLGS becaue their FLGS. Not because they, you know, offer some kind of service to entice me to spend money in the store as opposed to ordering Online.

Well since were going to start usingthat metric of what folks can or cannot talk about if we dont meet insurance, payroll and rent.....*I* run a small business(non-gaming) so then I guess I get to talk. No, your not justified. It flat out turns people off who might actually get in the door and...

The better be out of this world. Because right now, I know several folks that play 4e and that are incredibly unhappy with the new character builder, and want the old one back. Its not looking good.

And given the way that esesentials was marketed, as a step back into things that folks reconized(like being what was it they called it, 3.75, 3.9) it seemed more like trying to snag some folKS with nostalgia rather then a planned from the beginning. I dont remember anything like this planned...

My current group was a bunch of random people found on online solicitation, by location. We're all within an hour of the DM. I think 1 maybe two people knew each other out of 7. We're now 8, as one moved away, and 2 joined in, 4 years going on, no sign of letting up. We're been to a couple of...

i would buy the comprehesive Dark SUn 3.5 game world. Its one of the few things that really got missed and missed out on. But beyond that, saying "quite alot, there's a list" doesnt tell me anything. WHAT would they do to support 3.5 and get people to buy it IF(and thats a big if) they choose...

Absolutely.....ours is still ongoing....:D Vastur Caine and company is always up for a challenge(and no I dont play Vastur) (and yes I know which one is yours....)

For a second there, I missed the sarcasm tag and was getting read to rip you a new one.... First they would have to do what GW did in 2001 and remove any chance any store can sell WOTC products via an online cart and THEN have their own online store. Making it difficult for customers to get...

They wont do that. I dont think they CAN do that. One uses the OGL, the other the GSL. Two very different licenses. Further, the two systems are radically different- the edition wars, that have died down, still smolder and frankly I dont think they cna bridge the bad blood. Part of which stems...

WOuld be a great idea, especially POD. Wont happen since they would have, in tehir mind, other products that are competing with the their flagship- 4e. In their mind, every sale lost to POD is lost to getting them into 4e.

You would assume it would, but GW doesnt do a hard core, or even soft core tournment seen. They hardly did, they dont even do their own games day any more much. SInce you havent looked at WD anymore, you dont know that GW has changed alot. Not for the better(not that it great since it went...

[/FONT] Its obvious you have never been reading GW finacial reports for the last decade when they come out. GW isnt THAT successful. IN fact as you read them, you see the ONLY reason for the most part they stay in black is raising prices every year. In fact, looking at their sales data, with...

Thats not quite all the reasons you know. WOTC's handling of the 4e roll out had several bad choices on their part- their speaking down of 3.x that didnt go well, the absolute debacle with the OGL/GSL rollout, no game table at release, the backlash from the cancellation of the...

Been There, Done That.......BTDT Not to brag, but I can absolutely guarentee that when you stack up any of your online games to our Ptolus game at teh table? It loses. I'd bet money on it. Four years running strong, no signs of let up. Easily the best group that I had th epleasire of gaming...

Sorry, while 1dt edition was great, 2nd edition did not, in your words, rock. I found it kinda sucked actually, and was the start of the arms race with various books.

Quite a bit actually, helps. What you assume is that we dont have-odd schedules, rural or slower comminties or other such items. What you dont know is, I happened to live, as I call it, a gaming dead zone. There is NOTHING around me. Nearest game store? about an hour in whatever direction...
