[QUOTE="Shabe, post: 4264307, member: 66108"] I must say I'm playing in a 3.5 game where plate armour is almost impossible to get hold of, as anywhere that sells it we are shuffled away from (having to do some quest for someone) before the however many weeks it takes to make and surprisingly enough its the wizard (with levels in hag = nat armour) and the monk (with greater mage armour) who stand in the front row, while the paladins, fighters and cleric hope not to be targeted. It doesn't make for an immensely fun experience game wise (especially when he says "AC 27 does that hit?", and we all look at him and go of course it did it wasn't the witch or the monk), but the socialising keeps me going to the game, and yes I've dropped several "hints" (aka told him to his face) to the dm that this isn't fun the players have agreed but he still won't change the game. At least in this edition if people mess around with armour prices the fighters aren't going to be disadvantaged as much and as long as it keeps the game away from stripping enemies of every piece of equipment then I'll be happy. Personally i'm happy with whatever prices are in the phb as I don't see the prices having much if any impact past the first level or three, i'll probably even skip tavern and food fees this time round. On a slightly related note, Kobold Dragonshields, are their shields actually dragon scales or just wood and leather shield made to look like a dragon scale? [/QUOTE]
