[QUOTE="DEFCON 1, post: 7159236, member: 7006"] To answer one of your other questions, Capn... yes, Mike and Co. were trolling us. They know components are stupid, just like 90% of the D&D populace know they are stupid. But there's still those 10% who would have complained of the game didn't include them. So Mike et. al. spent probably 15 minutes copying and slightly editing component rules from another edition, threw them into the game and then washed their hands of it... knowing full-well that those old school players who actually care about that crap probably had their own already-established opinions on how they are supposed work, and nothing WotC included was going to be looked upon favorably. So since they would house-rule their own component rules in anyway... Mike's decision to not waste their own design time putting together intricate rules no one would care to use was probably the right one. -See the Hiding rules for a similar situation.
