[QUOTE="Upper_Krust, post: 815612, member: 326"] Hey Mourn! :) Yes I know thats their official assumption and its an obvious flaw in my opinion. Just how far does this campaign setting leniency extend...smacks a little of hypocrisy. I mean what if Races of Faerun refers to something from Monsters of Faerun. Is that acceptable to you whereas my suggestion is not? But we are not discussing free web material. There you go then... As you well know I was refering to most people in this thread. I'm afraid your point doesn't hold water at all. Obviously they are going to plan the design and contents ahead of schedule. Are you suggesting they are fools over at WotC!? I don't mean they should tack on a few pages towards the end when the rest of the book is finished. I am talking about a conscious decision from the start to designate perhaps 5% of the book to epic/immortal centric campaigns, thats only ten pages out of every 200 for goodness sake. ...and if I want Monsters I will get the Monster Manual. But now they are trying to sell us new books and I think they should recognise that a lot of people play in different campaigns, not the majority, true, but a healthy minority. Exactly, and that difference is that there is little of consequence for epic campaigns in the Fiend Folio...though I must admit I am interested to see that CR 25 Demon. :D Didn't entirely agree with them then, still don't now. No its a totally different situation now. T$R spread core mechanic updates throughout a variety of books. Monsters (nor Items) are not the same as intrinsic rules mechanics. I'm talking about a small percentage of material that will be specific to people who already have those books. They won't be new vital components to the rules. :D He sounds like a bit of a doofus. Take him to the side and have a chat with him. What is this 'Who Wants To Be A Millionaire'!? *cough* ;) [/QUOTE]
