Message: <blockquote data-quote="Orclicker" data-source="post: 113008" data-attributes="member: 981">Kalamar review processLet me introduce myself, my name is Andy Ferguson and I am a freelance writer for Kenzer, so far I have written one book for them, the Villain Design Handbook, and also have a contributing writer credit in the Kalamar Player's Guide.To the best of my understanding the comment about the material in the Kalamar Player's Guide being official wasn't meant to say that non official material is junk, just that the Kalamar material has to go through the most exacting selection process in the 3E/d20 genre.  Not only does Kalamar material go through Kenzer's in-house approval and editing standards but every word and every image also has to be approved by WotC, twice, once for preliminary design and once for the finished product.  This means that by the time a Kalamar book gets to a game store near you it has had about twice as much editing and/or revisions as any other 3E/d20 book, even the core books!  Now, by no means am I saying that other D20 products are of lesser status.  Only that I have bought a few books that looked really good until I have had the chance to read them, at which point I was disappointed because the small production team of often inexperienced game designers missed a few (sometimes glaring) mistakes that would have been caught by having an independent reviewer.Well I hope that this explains why that was put into the ad.Andy</blockquote>
