[QUOTE="DEFCON 1, post: 7997356, member: 7006"] Well of course... but my point was that what essentially ends up being "forbidden combinations" of race and class are like 50 times larger than race/class combos that are "allowed" because the "allowed" combos just end up being the four or five combos the players actually selected. Everything else that wasn't selected pretty much becomes a "forbidden combo" because the DM and players aren't seeing it. So even by just doing nothing whatsoever, a DM could see their "banned" list coming to fruition just because of the numbers and odds involved. And they never have to be a "jerk" by giving their players a banned list. Although as I'm a DM who sees nothing wrong with changing up allowable things depending on campaign... I'd always say give them a banned list if it matters for the game. And those that don't like it and want to play a banned combo? Tell them to try something new for once and make a choice that they ordinarily wouldn't make. Or of course just choose not to play in the game. Whichever way they want to go. ;) [/QUOTE]
