The insult leveled at you is the same insult that would be leveled at anyone who was being overcharged for a product. It's a human insult. However, if you choose to buy it, that doesn't make you stupid or sheep-like. It does not cast any aspersions on your intelligence, willfulness or...

WotC isn't a non-profit organization and I won't be handing out money to them so they can "get by" until 4th edition comes out. They'll earn their money by putting out products people want to buy at prices they will tolerate paying. The preview books will sell, but they won't sell well. As...

You're spot on target. It's a poorly thought out attempt at generating revenue during the dead zone between now and 4e. WotC is betting it all (well, not ALL, see below) on the MMORPG marketing horse: "Hey, people will buy a guide for World of Warcraft, I bet they'll buy a preview of fourth...

I used to do the layout for a small newspaper. This happened... on more than a few occasions. :eek:

OK Scott, I'm game. Tell me why I would want to pay $20.00 plus tax for this book in my FLGS, or $13.57 on Amazon.com. The same goes for all the preview/advertisement books. Or, hypothetically, tell me why a potential customer's intelligence shouldn't be insulted at what they might perceive as...

Maybe WotC shouldn't be making products like this? Or, at the very least, not with a MSRP of $20.00? I've seen it before... but posts advocating piracy are against the site rules.

I'd pay $5 for it. Maybe.

I voted for all of them, and not in an attempt to be arbitrary. I'd honestly like to see any and all of these modules updated. Heck, I wouldn't mind seeing the 2e and 3e modules updated, either.

When I played AD&D as a kid, we didn't have access to any AD&D modules! Or miniatures! Just the core books. So all of the AD&D adventures I've used have been since the launch of 3e. Against the Giants series: I ran a homemade conversion of this for third edition. Tomb of Horrors: I played...

It sounds like a great idea... but if he's just now getting around to writing it, how much playtesting will it get? It sounds like it might be just as "dangerous" as the 3.5 way of doing it.

Voted "I don't know if I will." I'll switch to 4e whenever one of my gaming groups wants me to run it.

As mentioned above, it sounds like a neat coffee table book. I'd put it out with my copy of 30 Years of Adventure if I find it half-off at a used bookstore.

This sounds fun. I really liked Saltmarsh in the DMG2.

The World of Warcraft board game comes with a whole bunch of plastic miniatures that are close enough to scale with D&D minis when I eyeballed them.

The first printing of CHAINMAIL is the only true game. All others are pale imitations.

Let me take this opportunity to suggest A Different Game System. You can do everything you ever wanted to not do with 4e with ADGS. Also you can do everything you didn't not want to not do with ADGS. Why aren't you playing ADGS yet? Why do you hate it? WHY DO YOU HATE ME? Sincerely, Paid...

1974 here as well. Very odd... what is it about 1974?
