[QUOTE="Hussar, post: 9110240, member: 22779"] But, again, this roles around to what I'm saying. WotC has been very, very clear about this. They will provide a basic set of rules and whatnot to get you off the ground. Here's an adventure path, here's some background stuff, off you go. They will not provide you with detailed stuff. Ten years now and they've been really upfront about this. It's not a secret. Anyone who thinks WotC is going to give you fifty page treatises on ship to ship combat (as an example) is dreaming. It's not going to happen and WotC has flat out told everyone that they will not do this. Plus, they have been promoting DM's Guild for years. Promoting it pretty regularly. But, it never seems to matter because if WotC doesn't do it, no one bothers. 🤷 I really don't get what people think is going to happen here. If you want more detailed ship combat rules, they're right there. There's several, professional quality systems available They are 100% right there. But, because they don't say WotC on the cover, they get completely ignored. I don't know what WotC has to do to promote this more. Putting out bi-monthly Dragon Magazines for what, five or six years with highlights from DM's Guild creators hasn't put a dent in things. People simply refuse to accept that WOtC 100% WILL NOT give you what you want. They have told you, repeatedly, over and over again, that they are not going to do what you want. But people still insist that WotC MUST deliver what they happen to want or doom and despair shall fall over the hobby. Well, ten years in, fantastic growth, and no doom in sight. Guess what folks, you lost this argument years ago. Anything now is just sour grapes. [/QUOTE]
