I've been running games for 16 years, and the only time I've ever need stats for a god was in a Rifts game where one of the PCs was a Babylonian demigod. But I like to have them. I have (and have had for a long time) an idea for a Greyhawk campaignt that will involve combat with one or more gods (based in some part on the Saberhagen books about the swords). It's nice to have the stats available. I'd much rather have someone else do the work and then tweak it to my needs than do all the work myself. I am mostly just shocked by how angry some people are about the book. Some people act like it was some kind of personal betrayal, and I don't get that, since I can't figure out what they were expecting. It's Deities and Demigods. I figured right off the bat that it would be like the first Deities and Demigods and have stats for the Gods. I never understood the hatred - it's not like they put out a book called Churches and Faiths - A Handbook for Clerical Characters and then filled that with deific stats.</blockquote>
