Message: <blockquote data-quote="Celebrim" data-source="post: 3516456" data-attributes="member: 4937">That's where I tend to take issue with the statement.  The problem I have is that while to a certain extent you are correct about some of the problems that have to be considered, every single time someone starts a thread on low magic a certain crowd of people show up arguing that this is 'badwrongfun'.  And while that might not be your intention, you are making the same arguments that other people with this intention use as cover for derailing the thread.There have been alot of people making statements along these lines, but they tended to make them as positive statements - "These are the sort of things you can do to avoid potential pitfalls."  Statements like, "If you reduce PC equipment you may have to adjust some encounters.", are at this point not very helpful.  Not only are they straight forward obvious, but historically people who make this criticism aren't normally doing so out of a love and appreciation for low magic campaigning and a desire to be helpful.  If you are, I think you should try to give more positive contributions rather than appearing to harangue everyone that is.And I think that this is an example of why I don't trust that you are trying to make a positive contribution to this thread.And this false factoid is trotted out every time some one wants to claim that low magic games are 'badwrongfun'.  I've done the math before and posted it here on just about every monster in the 1st edition monster manual, and this assertion is simply false.</blockquote>
