[QUOTE="Burticusb, post: 6756184, member: 6791242"] Hmmmm... nope, just because you are from a different region doesn't mean your character couldn't have traveled to the "story origin" location. I get where you are trying to defend this, but in reality, region books should be allowed in all "story origin" locations. For example Purple Dragon Knight's would likely be from the region near Cormyr... which is awfully close to the Moonsea region. Your still keeping the the story origin characters with their unique flavor. How about this, maybe it'll make it feel a little less messy... SCAG and other non-seasonal books could be called just regional books, and not "origin" books... or maybe Forgotten Realms Core books. I see no reason why there couldn't be Purple Dragon Knights or Dwarven Gutbusters during the "origin" story of Elemental Evil... other than worries on "rules bloat" Which adding non seasonal books to the rotation of season books only adds to the confusion... I think this would actually simply things more then it would cause rules bloat. As far as choices of gaps between story origin versus other origins, you are right, there aren't many other "best" choices, but that doesn't mean there won't be. And to be honest, really, I don't feel there should be any restrictions like this anyways. These add flavor to the game and creativity... this is not a competitive game and it should not matter if my character has a stronger build than yours. If that were the case no body would play anything but a Wizard... since they are still over powered... As I feel this has been discussed enough here, I'm done defending my view, since I know it won't matter here anyways. I appreciate your view on this StinkyEttin, but this is where I finish this debate, because I am just bored of it really... I suggest everyone who feels like I do, that these restrictions between story origin and campaign books should be lifted in AL, should go here...
