[QUOTE="Imaro, post: 7096337, member: 48965"] Sorry but that wasn't clear from your post. And to be fair earlier in the discussion you chose to cite different games as examples of BW's flexibility. Yes as in those things which support the assertion you have made... It's not about believing them or not... it's asking posters to support their assertions and explain exactly what they mean so that the conversation is clear. Furthermore it's what every one is doing in this thread (and you when it comes to my assertions around 5e... why don't you just accept what I am asserting about said game, especially since it's clear you haven't read the actual corebooks only the free rules?) so I'm not sure specifically why you have a problem with me asking for examples or clarity around games I may not be as familiar with as other posters in the thread. you're doing the same thing with D&D 5e. Have you read the corebooks for 5e? And since we are speaking to posting style, I don't understand yours either. You seem pick and choose what to acknowledge in a particular post often taking things out of context or choosing the least salient (using the most pedantic means of nitpicking) points of a post while ignoring the main thrust(s)?? and/or more salient ones. Main example being this very post... why is that? EDIT: At this point I don't think there's much more to be gained by us discussing the flexibility of D&D 5e or BW as you've made it clear earlier that nothing I've posted will convince you and when asked what would convince you... you chose to ignore the question. At this point it might be best to chock it up to difference of opinion, especially as it's degraded to questioning of each others posting styles as opposed to talking about games. [/QUOTE]
