Not because they're evil, but because they're a business.The profit they make by selling non-random packs beyond special cases like this has to be more than what they lose in sales of random boosters because of this, for if you can get your 20 orcs here, you won't buy boosters, and you won't buy on the secondary market, which buys boosters. Some may be brought into DDM with such packs, but others will buy fewer boosters because of it.Oh, and one thing that seems to have been missed: So the secondary market can't deliver what you want (be it harbinger orc warriors or whatever else)? What makes you think the or-theme-pack will? Will that be 20 orc warriors? Will that be any orc warriors? Maybe they will be some orcs with axes, some with clubs and crude shields, some priests/spellcasters with quarterstaffs, and some javelin-throwers. So those who wanted their orcs to have greatclubs, or sword and board, or other sorts of spellcasters, or bows instead of javelins, will still be screwed. But they will be screwed on a more expensive level, since non-random packs are more expensive than random packs.</blockquote>
