[QUOTE="Upper_Krust, post: 2701638, member: 326"] Hey Shemmy mate! :) Even the feel is somewhat different when the relationships between mortals and immortals (including Demon Princes) is not so black and white (as it was in 2nd Edition). Well I think this goes to the heart of the matter as to what is important between us. I prefer a balance between flavour and crunch. Same as 1st Edition then. :p Thats only valid in Deities & Demigods though. James Jacobs articles have shown that you can have the crunch and the fluff at the same time. Okay. Obviosuly any elaboration is going to expand on the previous material. By the time we reach 6th Edition there is going to be more official material on Orcus than there is now for instance. Only if we use the 2nd Edition 'stats' for such beings. You could say the same about a Bandit Keep for 1st-level adventurers - in that if you rush in and hack and slash you'll end up dead. Indeed, so to an extent there is no point updating the material. Even less so than the likes of Greyhawk and Forgotten Relams because the ravages of time are less likely to change things. Well my birthday is April 30th. :p No problems, been a bit busy myself. ;) [/QUOTE]
