[QUOTE="phloog, post: 4559632, member: 59219"] I don't disagree that anyone who posts in these deals is swept up in this 'war', which is a rather grand term for a bunch of folks arguing about Dungeons and Dragons...it's as noble a war as a battle between Deep Space Nine and Enterprise fans...or maybe as ultra-hip-and-cool as a 700+ page dissertation on why Kari Wuhrer ruined Sliders. In one respect I'm out of the war - - I play in a 3e campaign and run a True20 campaign....but I would like it if enough of this war gets through to WOTC to get them to produce a different game next time. And I definitely think it's ridiculous that they call 4e an 'evolution', not a 'revolution'. And as I've said a bazillion times before, just because the rules and the flavor they provide doesn't work for my campaign, doesn't mean I personally think it's a poor game system - it's just not compatible with the fiction of my campaign. I hold out hope that D&D will take on yet another incarnation in 5e that gets rid of a lot of this stuff that doesn't work for me, but 4th was such a huge shift that I'm not holding my breath.
