[QUOTE="Herremann the Wise, post: 5579579, member: 11300"] Disingenuous? A feint? I think this is judging their motives unfairly. Instead, I think they are trying to kill several dragons with the one box: - They want a cheap product that a new group could buy and use to get into table top gaming. - They want to be and be obviously seen supporting their community with a product that shows off at a beginner's level what Pathfinder has to offer. - They want a version of Pathfinder out there that is simple and easy to play and GM (something that Pathfinder cannot claim at higher levels of play). - A complete product that seems very much in the vein of E6. Everything's in the official box, ready to go. - A product that their previous line of products can support (re: low level modules, pathfinder society modules and other pathfinder products). - A product that provides a seamless transition to Pathfinder for those enthused and who wish to take that step. - A product that will hopefully get new blood into a hobby that needs it. So yeah, to label such a project with such obvious and multiple aims as disingenuous is unfair in my opinion. Best Regards Herremann the Wise [/QUOTE]
