[QUOTE="HardcoreDandDGirl, post: 6403581, member: 82746"] no [MENTION=22779]Hussar[/MENTION] has argued that you need to compromise... just like I have. well the reason I quote is when I disagree, My problem is until the moment the game starts we are just friends sitting around making plans to play... I include Chargen in that. and again, there are circumstances that fly, and ones it doesnt'... again running a PF AP is the big glareing issue here... the DM has to learn the basic rules (was already a player so basics are a check)... how to set up a campaign (hey look he choose a premade pre packackaged one)... how to handle players (wow that is a hard skill... up there with herding cats)... and learning the rules of each PC. D&D (and pathfinder) are really packages of rules. Learning all of one package over another is not a big deal. to be honest learning gunslinger is way easier then learning wizard... that is where we disagree... he may have been but we don't know... your right... it is how the DM reacts to the others... well sometimes char gen is a problem in and of itself... I don't chastise DMs for having limits, I worry when DMs hit hard limits at char gen with no ability to forsee anyone ever wanting to play other things... yea, it was crazy levels of house rules... :blush: someone had way too much time on there hands :o yea, it was a spur of the moment idea, and one that went no where... man I wish you were around back then... all 4 games are ones I pitched and either never got played at all, or made it less then 7 game sessions....
