That means character creation, equipment, spells and a general understanding of the rules. This could actually be a traditional book at a price tag of 30 bucks.Then, I'd rather have the DMG and MM as a single book, with everything else, namely the stuff of running a game, campaign advice, monsters, magic items, etc. This would likely be a massive book, probably worth an 80 or 90 dollar mark (maybe even more, if WotC desires about 120-150 dollars for the whole package of PHB + DMG + MM).My intention with this would be to give players the absolute minimum of information while at the same time making it cheaper to be a player. It is a very real problem here in Brazil, where the books often arrive at triple the price of the US editions, meaning most players simply pirate the books online and the DM is usually the only one really spending money. It is my experience that DMs are more likely to buy expensive books, while players generally believe any substantial investment to be unworthy.</blockquote>
