If you like most of the guidelines, then those guidelines make it into your games as rules. If you like everything but one rule, and you have your house rule for that, would it still not be worth it to pay someone else to print and bind every other rule you like for you?Your complaint about the CR system in particular was that they provided it, and not a set of guidelines. The CR system is a set of guidelines. I'm not saying that there's nothing wrong with the game, but rather that your particular complaint about the CR system didn't make sense: it doesn't make sense because you ask for exactly what the CR system is, guidelines, and complain that guidelines arn't provided.Whence the hostility? Did I say something to upset you?In a particular game, the rules are the guidelines accepted and determined by the participants, with the DM having the most control. To this extent, no rule in the PHB cannot be changed, and the game is specifically tailored to make that kind of customization possible.If you are playing by the Rules As Written, then by my definition you are using the Core Rules and Eratta. Some people include the FAQ, some exclude Eratta.But the only thing that really matters is that you play by the rules set by the DM. Because DnD is constructed the way it is, those rules can be many and varied; some games completely unresemble others.</blockquote>
