[QUOTE="Conandar, post: 7044218, member: 6747684"] I am [I]guessing[/I] it is because AL is meant for a new-to-the-game-friendly game style, without the uncertainities that UA materials would introduce. Depending on the season of AL, not even all official material is allowed (Aarakocra race is not allowed in the underdark, for example). Like it or not, AL is meant to be more structured than standard game play, where standard is whatever your GM allows, and AL has rules even the GM is supposed to follow. As far as including UA material in FAs tool, it is just too "fluid" for one person to deal with on a hobby character sheet tool. This is not FAs job (he gets no money for this besides the donation of beer money) and, as far as I know, FA does not share the load with anyone outside of getting help with translations. FA has set certain limits to help limit the load. One is that the tool does not support more than 3 classes for multiclass characters. Another is that it only supports official materials. If these limits do not work for your gamestyle, you are free to use another tool or even the tried-and-true pencil-and-paper method that players have been using since the '70s! [/QUOTE]
