People will grow tired of shelling $ for stuff that should have been in the 1st PHB? Look at that, kids! Threadcrapping gets you a free vacation from the boards. ~ Piratecat

Yes, most DMs realize that full casters are too powerful in relation to non-caster classes and act accordingly.

1st Q: When you play the Dungeons & Dragons table-top game... I play the Dungeons & Dragons Role Playing Game. What game are they surveying for?

So, if your book burns you can print another? What ARE you talking about?

Which is absolutely no problem for the computer literate gamers. I can always print out a copy of a PDF. If a book is ruined, you're SOL.

Unless it is something you can own permanently on your own computer and make backups, it won't fly.

I was making a joke. However, a DM that would introduce a Pit Fiend as an encounter and by game time, NOT know how it operated is somewhat less than competent based on my experience. YMMV. As far as having a player like me, well, if a DM doesn't know what he's doing he may find his NPCs being...

What WotC did won't effect sales of 4.0 products. If someone wants the pdf, it is there. The only effect of WotC's action will be to cut a revenue source for them. Just like the music industry did in the 90's.

You would probably have players who play rather than flip madly through the PHB trying to figure out what BAB is?

Right. I was just showing different possibilities. AS you noted, my 1st post is probably the best.

Right, we can only speak from our own experience and knowledge. It is entirely possible you don't game with people who have the amount of experience I have.

Umm, if you are going to comment on a post read the entire thread. Otherwise, you are just wasting everyone's time.

I read it. Interesting, however it is not likely. Purposely redesigning the flagship RPG product on the planet to operate off of an almost unheard RPG concept and then, neither mention it in the rules nor in a designer interview after almost a year of withering criticism, is incredibly unlikey.

Of course it is. It isn't mentioned nor explained in the rule books, NO designer has said that this is the way the game was designed. It is just a way to try and explain an area of poor design. I can understand fans trying to figure out what the heck the designers were thinking (or even if...

1st Ed MM "The shell under the bulette's crest, an area about a foot and one-half square, is only AC 6, and in a fierce fight the monster tends to raise its crest and expose this vulnerable area. Its eyes are armor class 4, but they are relatively small ( 8 oval)." 1st Ed DMG "If a helmet is...

Of course, piracy has an impact. But, refusing hundreds of millions in sales hurts too. And, is extremely idiotic.

You were actually given reasons that are logical when viewed from the 3.x rules set...

Are you being sarcastic? Or, do you really not know what happened with CDs & the record industry's decision to not sell electronically in the 90s, despite HUGE consumer demand?

If a DM has really run games up to the level, he knows. I've never encountered otherwise unless the DM was running a monty haul, very fast leveling type of game.
