So they sure could make quality.What angered me as a customer though were the damn metaplots in novel lines so they could re-write settings so they could sell newer boxed sets after screwing up perfectly damn good settings, GRRR! <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/rant.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":rant:" title="Rant    :rant:" data-shortname=":rant:" />"Too much stuff" well you weren't meant to buy it all, folks!!
