[QUOTE="Donovan Morningfire, post: 4607713, member: 39532"] Quite probably the same sort of mindset that made people continuely participate in the edition wars during D&D 4e's release. As for running a WHFP game and not falling into the "stereotypes," a fair amount of that falls on the shoulders of the players as well as the GM. From the campaign I played in, not a single inn was burned down (in fact, we stopped an inn from being burned down) and there were zero trips into a sewer. So by NovaLord's logic, we must not have been playing WHFP ;) Our GM, being a veteran of the minis game, knew the tropes and did a pretty good job of avoiding the more heinous ones. Truth be told, the most fun session we had was a festival that one of the local Imperial lords was holding to for his son's 9th birthday, though there were a few nefarious plots of varying degrees to be unraveled (assassin to kill the lord, a treacherous Imperial knight determined to win the joust at all costs, and a low-down flithly blighter that tried to spike the ale kegs with mad cap mushrooms). I can't really speak as to "party wealth" seeing as how our group consisted of a Elf Kithband Warrior, a Bretonnian Knight-Errant, a Human Entertainer dancer/knife-thrower, a Human Apprentice Wizard, a Human Roadwarden, and a Dwarf Troll Slayer (together we fought crime; crime and orcs, lots of orcs). Not a single magical item was found, but then again we weren't exactly starving for money either and started out with pretty solid equipment, which I gather from posts in this thread isn't typical. Or maybe our GM wasn't quite that petty with starting equipment (it was servicable and in fairly decent condition). We also didn't try and loot the orcs' gear, mostly since there was a bounty on orc heads that paid well enough. For adventures, click the MediaFire link I posted earlier in this thread on page 4. There's a sub-header on that page called "Adventures" and has a wealth of material, both to run as is or to use as inspiration to draw from. [/QUOTE]
