[QUOTE="TalonComics, post: 165831, member: 60"] I must admit I am very surprised that Hasbro would okay a project like this mainly because they have never done anything remotely like it. I can't think of anything that even comes close to this going all the way back to the TSR days. The most important question I have as a retailer is: Is this book going to contain a "Mature Readers" warning? D&D has always been defended as a game playable by 12 and older and this would be the first book that goes against that not counting Call of Cthulhu D20. With that being said though I hope that this begins a bold new direction for Wizards of the Coast products. No, this isn't going to go over well with ultra conservatives and the religious right. It's time though to tackle the dark side of D&D. I don't want this to be an instructions manual on how to play evil characters or how to run an evil PCs game. What this should be is how to truly play evil adversaries against the forces of good. How to make them sweat when confronted with those who are willing to do *anything* for power. Welcome to Hell, children. You won't be leaving. ~Derek [/QUOTE]
