The issue here being that as DM's we can tell players a lot that they must read the Current season players guide. That they should. And thats all we can do. We cant stand over them whilst they read the Players guide to make sure that they are actually doing so. We might get get a 'Yes , sure will' and they never do. Ive got players in my Encounters game who are level 6 and STILL do not have a Players handbook. Ive asked how they actually level up their characters and I wont repeat the answers in here (due to the fact that they are of a Pirate nature).  I have actually printed out current season players guides so I know they have them but for all I know they are collecting dust in their car. Like has been stated many times that we are not the police of AL. If people want to do the wrong thing, or the lazy thing we cannot stop them. We have to hope that they will turn over that gaming leaf and actually read what they should be reading. I would prefer if table ownership of the Players guide was mandatory. Ie the DM could say 'Everyone here needs their own copy of the Players guide at the table' but I dont see that happening.</blockquote>
