[QUOTE="JackSmithIV, post: 4559395, member: 74901"] My god, are we still stuck on the idea that Wizards is now designing their tabletop roleplaying game to cater to their minis because they made a [B]very[/B] minor adjustment to one creature on one page of one sourcebook in order to please those who might have an Aspect of Tiamat mini? I feel like every time the question comes up, people forget that the conversation at Wizards probably went a little something like this: "Hmmm, what size should she be... well, there's a mini out for Aspect of Tiamat, so if we make her huge, all of the people who have the miniture will be able to use it to represent her. No biggie! I think they'll appreciate that accomidation!" Instead, it seems like everyone thinks this is going on: "Hmmm, what size should she be... oh, I know, she should be whatever size the miniture is! If we keep making everything the size of minitures, people will buy more and more and more of our products. Those stupid saps... and they think we care about Dungeons & Dragons..." Yeah, like the release of the [B]next[/B] edition is going to be some judgement day where everyone is going to be happy and there will be no edition wars. [/QUOTE]
