[QUOTE="Iron Dog, post: 4798262, member: 41392"] [FONT=Arial][/FONT] [FONT=Arial]I am aware of what I currently get out of my subscription; my point is that what so good of having all that martial for a game that I have [FONT=Arial][COLOR=white]difficulty [/COLOR][/FONT][COLOR=white]even getting to play.[/COLOR][/FONT] [FONT=Arial]Please do not take my remarks as a rant on "am I getting my moneys worth from WOTC", I'm sure that's been done to death elsewhere on this forum.
