God knows I've gave 'em enough of my bread over the years to be allowed a snipe or two don't you think? <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" />And Dude, I said "friend" to try and be civil over the whole affair. I was simply following the train of thought that you, and others in the More Rules=Good camp in this thread, seem to be espousing i.e. if WotC (trying to play nicey-nice here) puts out a new book full of crunchy goodness it adds to the game. If I'd wanted to call you a fanboy, I'd come right out and say it.But, and just to restate a position that's already been stated, if a player comes to a game and says hey, I want to work toward the UberKilly Chosen of Bob the God of, like Really Ultimate Killy Stuff PrC from the new Races of Yummy Goodnes, it ...wait for it...does add complexity to the game because now I, the overworked and underpayed DM, must review that PrC, and in all fairness the entire contents of the new Crunch Book. The new crunch adds complexity because its sole goal is to entice players to use it.I believe I have been, though trying to do so in a rather lighthearted manner. Again, not trying to pull your chain, but looks like I did. Mea Culpa. Pax Dude.Well, that's not a bad stab at it, but those new spells were produced way, way back in the early days before The Flood. As it stands now, I pretty much glance at and quickly pass on most of the stuff that Monte's putting out now. Still, those are very, very damn good books and were quite unique when they were introduced.</blockquote>
