[QUOTE="kenjib, post: 652707, member: 530"] I would be completely embarassed if one of my non-rpg friends saw this book on my shelf. Nude pics are no big deal, but there are compounding factors here. First off, I agree completely that the subjects tend to look like trashy Hustle whores with silicone implants. This one is perhaps the worst IMO, as the women look like they're doing a disco inferno lapdance: [url]http://www.avalanchepress.com/miva/merchant.mv?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=AP&Product_Code=0915&Category_Code=d20[/url] Second, it's not just trashy pics, but it's trashy pics plus D&D. As if D&D needs more things that make it look bad. It would be hard to have non-rpg friends understand what the game is all about if this is what they see. Hehe -- one of my friends has a remarkable talent. He can open any rpg book and instantly find the absolute worst sentence to read out-of-context in the entire book to read aloud. If he grabbed the old 1e Fiend Folio, for instance, he would instantly see the sentence where it describes how flumphs are propelled by gas when he opened the book. It's uncanny and really funny, actually. Hehe -- I can imagine what the first book he grabbed would be if an Avalanche book was on my shelf. lol! [/QUOTE]
