[QUOTE="Tony Vargas, post: 7167831, member: 996"] Material Components: 1 shotgun (focus), 2 shells. Shells are not consumed if the saving throw is failed. Oh, you could probably keep running 4e for 20 years or so before you run out of interesting stuff to do with it - longer if your roster of players changes up now and then & some old things become new again, or you were just really, really set in your ways. I've been running a campaign since the end of 2011, it's 24th, now, it'll probably end sometime in 2018, and that's just /one/ campaign. But ongoing development keeps the community around a game vibrant, and games like D&D benefit from at least a trickle of new material. Also, the underlying system had tremendous potential for other genres, and that wasn't much explored thanks to the very restrictive GSL, even when it was the flagship, and now would be very risky to try, indeed. But, really, the point (the point I made in the post your quoted, not the point of the thread) isn't that you can't, the point is that the OP can, and is, in spite of the fact he has less support to do so than everyone who felt 'betrayed' and 'forced out' by WotC with 4e, and felt that justified their edition warring.
