[QUOTE="Dunamin, post: 4872724, member: 57529"] As noted in the [URL="http://www.enworld.org/forum/living-4th-edition/246934-l4w-charter-read-first.html"]charter[/URL], unapproved characters are at the DM's discretion. If your PC is unapproved because he/she has the At-Will power of Instant Encounter Win or the +7 Sword of Awesome, your DM probably wouldn't allow you entry in the adventure in the first place. If your PC is unapproved because he/she has a power or item from a new WotC source that might be approved soon, its pretty simple to substitute a power or item of the same level and category until the matter is resolved. If its a "forgone conclusion" (5 votes for, 0 votes against), no DM would bother. These - still theoretical - rare issues are easily worked out together with DM and judge. Given retraining rules and overhauls mid-adventure, there's no reason to suggest a player would be punished by eliminating a class option with no replacement. Case in point, a PC in the Closed Eye has already changed powers and abilities extensively, and we're still underway in the adventure. He changed to illusion powers with an overhaul between encounters, before the overhaul rules was passed and the game survived just fine. If the proposal had not passed, it would have been a simple matter to reverse any changes. To reiterate, the rules of the game apply to the entirety of the L4W community, not just a hypothetical case of a player that needs the right proposal passed at the right time for the right adventure. So when we make changes to the rules I'd rather we make sure we do it right rather than rush, since the result has impact well beyond the original proposer. [/QUOTE]
