[QUOTE="Ovinomancer, post: 8643105, member: 16814"] No, I'd say there's absolutely something wrong with it at your table, hence why you've chosen to change it. If there was actually nothing wrong with it, you wouldn't have changed it. I think the argument you're trying to make is that you believe it's perfectly fine for most other tables. I don't find that particularly useful, though, because it involves guessing. Probably a good guess, but if the general statement is that the rules is fine and good, someone with a dislike might not think they should change it. Actually pointing out where you do have a problem and why instead of pasting a "good, but we made some changes -- not because it's bad but because we thought we liked it better this other way" helps more to allow people to make their own judgements. For example, I look at your rule and have no problems with it. I like it even, because I don't want to proscribe choices with setting material. But, if I did want to proscribe choices (a valid approach), then I would not like this rule and the existing rule would be better. So, "just fine" doesn't really seem to apply here unless we step back and review if the objective that this rule is accomplishing what we want from our game. [/QUOTE]
