[QUOTE="Herremann the Wise, post: 4887204, member: 11300"] I had to have a read of this again - I enjoyed (or definitely found it very thought provoking) the first time I read it and with time, it is still a fantastic insight into your thoughts at that particular point in time. I think a follow-up in regards to the new Pathfinder ruleset (3.75 if you will) would be incredibly interesting if you had the means and inclination (which I'm guessing you and your group most probably don't but heh...).
