[QUOTE="PatrickLawinger, post: 4319018, member: 2735"] Honestly, there really aren't that many "stats" in City State or the Wilderlands products. Stats for City State NPCs were as abbreviated as I could get away with. The sewers beneath the city do have stat blocks for the monsters you can run into down there but with 4e it is pretty easy to create stats for those guys. For actual playability in the hands of a moderately experienced DM, I honestly think that 4e is FAR easier to convert for than 3.X. A number of things can actually be converted on the fly. As an aside: I do not understand why so many fans are jumping up and down on message boards discussing how "evil" WotC is, and/or proposing ideas for ways to "get around" the GSL. When it comes to publishing under the GSL publishers have to look at various aspects of the license and get a few questions answered. The GSL is a license, anyone that enters into a licensing agreement has to be extremely careful and insure that all clauses of the license mean the same thing to both parties. Yes, publishers entering into the agreement have a lot to think about and consider. ANYONE entering into a licensing agreement has to do the same thing. Decisions like this shouldn't be made over night. Patrick [/QUOTE]
