[QUOTE="tburdett, post: 495371, member: 4714"] I don't charge my players. Each of them is expected, but not required, to buy a copy of the PHB. I have one spare copy and those players who do not have their own copy have to share it. Each player is required to buy their own dice and miniatures after a few sessions. If they want to run a prestige class they need to have the product that it came out of and they need to be willing to let me spend a week inbetween game sessions reading it if I don't already own the product. Fair use is a DM's best friend. Each person is required to bring something to eat or drink if they plan to eat or drink. I'm not a soup kitchen. The group voted early on to exempt me from this rule out of gratitude. I like my players. If they decide to order pizza they always order one for me. I've never asked for them to do this, but I certainly appreciate it. If they did not do it, I would not complain. I buy all of my own gaming material. [/QUOTE]
