Message: <blockquote data-quote="jasper" data-source="post: 6004584" data-attributes="member: 277">Cheers to Hobo for having players he can trust not to choose options which will not break the campaign/encounter. And I totally agree with limiting books for flavor options. However I have to disagree with the GM only needing a vague knowledge of pcs abilities. With rules\options\supplement\spat books bloat how is a GM suppose to keep up? Look up thread at the whip comment how an vague knowledge will mess up an encounter. I guess I have played with too many goobers who saw the game as PC vs DMs.  Example had a player loan me the Complete Paladin from 2ed. I quickly reviewed the paladin type he wanted to bring in. Ask was there anything major I needed to know. He said no then pulls out a +3 holy avenger at first level. And was mad at me when I down graded to +1 and because I did not review the paladin type completely.Now the OP is being kind of two face about not allowing books in his campaign but wanting his new book in all the other campaigns. I suggest he compromise. Allow one of books in his campaign. And talk with 1 GM to allow his new book in that Gms campaign.</blockquote>
