[QUOTE="Pauper, post: 6749858, member: 17607"] Over-simplifiers will over-simplify, good point. I could see that as a cause for concern, but looking over the things that have already been published, it looks like the game designers are basically taking the position that anything published is self-contained -- there are new sorcerer cantrips in SCAG useful for all sorcerers, and a new sorcerous origin that doesn't depend on the existing origins. So while it's not impossible for some later source to contain an enhancement intended for a rule in a prior source, I'm not going to hold my breath, either. Yep, that too. ; ) I think it's a concern that people are still conflating 'WotC' and 'the AL staff'; a lot of things people get upset about come from a belief that WotC and the AL staff are basically interchangeable, and they're really not. In this specific case, since the topic in question was clearly high priority for AL players, the WotC staff and the AL admin staff did some effective coordination to get the info put together and disseminated, but if you're thinking this is the blueprint that's going to be followed for all AL questions, I suspect you'll be disappointed in the end. Then again, unless this was the Big Announcement hinted at a few weeks back, there still might be more news on that point coming down the pipe. -- Pauper [/QUOTE]
