[QUOTE="Silenttimo, post: 3940561, member: 48251"] I do not intend to switch to 4E. However, I do intend to have a look at the PHB to see if there are stuffs I can use or take, and if the answer is "definitely yes !", I'll get one copy of that book only. [U]1st [/U]- I have too many books / adventures 3.0-3.5 to use, DM or play ; [U]2nd [/U]- I do not want to go all over on being dragged (but fully aware of it) in a process of buying Complete X or Compendium Y, "coz it rocks", since I already have plenty of material to use, not so much money I want to spend in new rules ; [U]3rd [/U]- my players (when I DM) have bought PHB or complete books in the past 12 months, and I do not want to appear as I am "forcing their way" into new rules, and I guess they have become quite pleased with 3.5 ; [U]4th [/U]- I am so disappointed by several things WOTC has made in the past 10 months : taking license back for both Dungeon & Dragon magazines ; taking license back for Dragonlance ; trying to launch Dungeon mag online & Dragon mag online with a result that I did not find that good, efficient, practical and useful ; [U]5th [/U]- the complete drop of the Greyhawk world ; [U]6th [/U]- the "not-so-understandable" changes I have read here or there (quests ?, races & classes, mix of deities from several worlds, ...) ; [U]7th [/U]- I know the 3.0-3.5 rules, and I do not want to go all over on the process of learning new rules, even if they are easier : I've got less time. I am also saddened that the communication was not that good that it divided the whole gaming community into "pro" and "anti" 4E. I guess WOTC could have launched a brand new game, as it has being said and written several times. So, I intend to stick to 3.5 for at least 8 years (I've got so much material !!) until my son is around 8-9 years old. BTW, maybe I could be called a "grognard", since I began in spring 1984 with basic D&D, quickly switching to AD&D 1st ed... [/QUOTE]
