[QUOTE="DMSamuel, post: 6170642, member: 95728"] Read my second sentence. I also said you CAN run any adventure in ANY edition, and that includes 4e. BUT I pointed out that 4e has an expected play style and that play style includes minis and maps. To the general 4e player, that is what they will expect from a 4e game because that is the expected play style of 4e. This adventure doesn't conform to the standard expected play style of 4e, so it will be/may be disappointing to 4e players. I then stated that it will take a ton of work on the part of the DM to run this adventure. I started playing in 1982, I love playing theater of the mind, and I have run 4e without maps. My preferred edition is Mentzer redbox basic, where the rules get out of the way and I can run the game me and my group want to play. But I still stand by what I have said. If they want to market MiBG to 4e players, they should at least put a disclaimer on it that says it will need a lot of finesse to run it like a traditional 4e game. I can understand why people who love 4e are not liking what they see with 5e and with MiBG. [/QUOTE]
