[QUOTE="molonel, post: 3261325, member: 10412"] Note: I was composing this post before the Mod comment. I don't believe any of my comments are personal, but I will happily erase them if they are perceived as such. More common? They've always BEEN common. In every edition. Every party I've played. Every campaign I've run. Every campaign where I've played a character. Basic, 1st, 2nd, 3.0, 3.5. One of my favorite 1st Edition characters was Boltac. I stole the name from Boltac's Trading Post in Wizardry. I resurrected him for 3rd Edition. He was a dwarf with the Hammer of Thunderbolts that he found in the 1st Edition Giants series of published modules. I never said it did. You can literally run any kind of fantasy game you want to under D&D rules. That doesn't make it NOT D&D. But it's NOT the 1st Edition classic-dungeon-crawl-returning-to-the-basics game that you're selling. Classic D&D had elves and dwarves, and we played them because it was cool and fun. Ahahahahahahaha!!!! You make it sound like this is the Bible, and we need to go back to the original Greek and Hebrew to understand how God intended us to play D&D. It's still D&D. So is an evil campaign. So is a low magic campaign. So is a desert campaign. So is an underwater campaign where all of the players are waterbreathing races. So is a Starjammer campaign. So is a Dark Sun campaign. So is a Ravenloft campaign. So is a Ghostwalk campaign were all of the players are undead, or an angelic campaign were they are all celestials. All of those things are D&D.
