(to be sure I like what they have done so far).The Gamma World reboot has my attention as well.And the Rules Compendium might be handy.  The Players Essentials might or might not be of any use for me, depending on how much fluff they have... otherwise I'll just get the crunch from the CB and Compendium.I like the DDM change... as it will (hopefully) be a very well done and thought out set, and because there is only 1/year of randoms, I can pick up many of them cheap as individuals.  As a footnote for those who are complaining; this is a clear cut case of the non-random system just NOT working... they would not change something that was working ie: making money.  I know I had no chance of picking up individual minis recently as my FLGS would not open the boxes of the last few sets to sell individuals... not sure exactly why.  And last time I was there, the owner still had certain visible packs that just weren't selling...(looking at YOU Mr. Unicorn).</blockquote>
