[QUOTE="Harkun, post: 4088618, member: 60804"] No, actually it hasn't and that is the point. Mr. Gygax (who we are now at a loss without him) and Mr. Arenson took the game AWAY from the board and allowed combat to be played in the head of a group of people around a table with a GM and his words describing the situation. Use of tabletop minis was always optional and frankly until 3.5 I never used them for anything but marching order. Thats about 20 some years of playing D+D without a mini or a tabletop map and combat went just fine. Little by little however we have for some reason reversed what Gygax and Arenson did now it seems it's a total reversal, soon we will just be playing the D+D minis rules. To the OP the problem was not the delve or the way D+D experience presented the rules. The fact is that the companies that are jumping ship and calling it "Tactical Combat" have not only seen the DD Exp but they have also paid for and seen the new SRD and decided to pass. When companies and people who have seen your rules decided to take a pass, you know you have a problem. [/QUOTE]
