[QUOTE="Orius, post: 5582079, member: 8863"] Well, in retrospect around this time I was tinkering around a lot with S&P and PO not realizing just how unbalanced the stuff could be if one got careless. So I found some of these magazine articles to be useful as it gave me more material to work with. I don't know if I'd feel quite the same way today, but Dragon seems like a good place to put these ideas since I'm not quite sure new PO based splats would have sold well. I mean there wasn't really a lot of support for the stuff except for Gates of Firestorm Peak. Since we're practically on top of TSR's crash here, I think probably WotC didn't bother to give much support to the line after they bought the game. Possibly they looked at sales figures or consumer surveys and saw the stuff wasn't popular or something, I don't know. Or maybe it was just the fact that TSR didn't really make much use of some of the optional crunch that was accumulating and just left it all in the laps of DMs. [/QUOTE]
