[QUOTE="CapnZapp, post: 8454672, member: 12731"] I too tried being constructive. What's constructive here, I think, is to interpret the thread's direction as not very many people being interested in merely a light veneer of WFRP on top of a regular game of D&D. I do understand that someone new to The Old World might consider such an idea alluring (you're far from the first!) but as you learn what makes WFRP tick you realize how it was truly designed as a reaction to D&D; it tries really hard to be everything D&D isn't (and succeeds phenomenally if you ask me!) I mean, the alternative would be for your thread to remain totally empty. Not sure if you would have preferred that. In the meantime, at least the thread now contains a fair amount of useful pointers for those readers that do want WFRP but not using the current 4th edition. A worthwhile goal, even if it wasn't your original intention with the thread - especially since I think the 4th edition ruleset is truly broken and very much not the improvement on 2nd edition it was sold as. But that's a subject for another day... Cheers [/QUOTE]
