[QUOTE="Ahrimon, post: 4407560, member: 12630"] It always makes me laugh when people take guidlines and worship them like they are comandments from on high. You want Baron McWeaksauce to be able have a fortune at his disposal? Done. Wealth by level is a CHARACTER system. Remember they are guidlines. You want you characters to have more wealth than normal? Go for it. Whether you've just given them more, they've blackmailed, swindled, or merchanted their way there it doesn't matter. Just don't come here crying when the players are bored because every encounter is a cakewalk. Don't attach "The commandments of DnD" to something that was never meant to be more than guidelines for keeping characters near the balance point for their level while opperating in the default world. Just because wotc didn't provide us with eight differant ecconomic models to plug into our campaign worlds does not mean that what they gave us is complete crap. It's a quick and easy system for the default world. If you want something more than quit crying about how they stole good money from you by not giving you your hearts desire and adjust the system to your taste. They're only guidelines. And I appologize if I seem crass. I just get tired of people assuming that everything in the books must be followed to the letter and because it's not 100% to their liking they whine and complain. I'm all for open discution about was to tweak whats there so that everyone can have a fun time. But lets leave out the internet hysteria shall we. [/QUOTE]
