When a rule dispute would come up I would say one of two things. 1. "When you are running the game you can choose how to run it in regards to the rules.  That may be how the rules are on page whatever, paragraph whatever, line whatever, but that is not what the rule states in the campaign setting that I have written for the GMs eyes only.  I wish I could show you but I don't want to ruin the game experience for you by providing you with information that is for the GM. Now lets move on." 2. As it states in almost ever game rule book that I have ever read. "The rules are merely a framework and are not to be taken as set in stone."</p></blockquote><p></p>
