[QUOTE="JEB, post: 8199167, member: 10148"] The problem with your whole premise there is that you're acting as if there's only one "rollercoaster", and if "Bob" keeps getting his "rollercoaster" you can't get a turn. But the floating ASI rules, and the fixed ASI rules, can and should both exist, so that both of you get what you want. What's the value in not supporting both? To be honest, it almost sounds like you're suggesting it was wrong that "Bob" ever got things his way, and now it's time for some payback. I really hope you're not seeing things that way... So just to be clear, because modrons don't fit your argument about how Wizards wouldn't need to create significantly different character races from this point forward, you're just dismissing them as unlikely to happen? That's rather convenient, don't you think? As for the rest of your points, you may be of the opinion that Wizards doesn't need to create writeups when they could just create mild variants... but history has shown they will, up through the Wildemount and Theros books last year, and there's also a marketing incentive for them to create actual stats for races like kender and draconians. It seems inevitable that we will see more character races. [/QUOTE]
