[QUOTE="justanobody, post: 4556957, member: 70778"] Why? D&D is not a combat simulation game. Books as in novels, or rulesbooks? If it is people to fight, then I think the gods detailed should start with those in the PHB. They are already in the books and someone might just want to have a story around a battle between the gods even if PoL design doesn't intend for ti to happen. Yeah. In a game about Dungeons and Dragons the god(dess) of dragons is a good opponent to have in plot and battle. I might, so might many others.

To you maybe, but what of people who want to play the antagonists of the game world, or anti-heroes or any number of other reasons they may want to fight with ANY deity as there story has laid out for them.
