Message: <blockquote data-quote="tyrlaan" data-source="post: 5141557" data-attributes="member: 20998">I agree and disagree. Is there a lot out there to consider when worldbuilding? Absolutely. And not just races. I'm surprised you didn't bring up classes, or even power sources for that matter. I don't know about you, but in my homebrew I currently have no space for psionic classes. So I agree there is a lot out there to worry about, but I don't perceive it as much of an issue. Mainly due to the suggestions posted thus far in this thread. My tendency is to go with the "exception-based design." For example, one player approached me with wanting to play a warforged. I told him that was okay with me and I started to come up with a way for them to fit into the world. Though frankly, warforged especially can easily be nixed because they're clearly setting specific.Also, is there a citation out there regarding WotC's miniatures mandate? I'm a bit dubious about this since goliaths (to my recollection) had the face markings back in 3e as well.On to the PHB3 races: Personally, I like the minotaur and the wilden and can easily live without the gith and the shardmind. But like someone has touched on, I really don't think the point of new races at this point are about pleasing everyone. And after writing all this, I have to say that I'm a bit unsure what exactly your gripe is. Is it that there are too many races or that you just don't like the shardmind and wilden (and the look of goliaths and devas)?Can someone clue me in on this CB campaign file? Is this just a doc you distribute or something that actually restricts what you see in CB?</blockquote>
