[QUOTE="Hussar, post: 2895439, member: 22779"] See, now this I disagree with. The assumption that anything from a non-core source is going to be broken. Take a look at the various threads about Complete Warrior, Complete Arcane and Complete Divine. The single most common complaint about all three books is that the classes are weak. Or, at least weaker than the PHB classes. Can you create unholy monsters from splat books? Oh yeah. But, then again, I can do the exact same thing with core. My halfing fighter riding on a dog pumping out triple digit damage at 8th level proved that quite nicely. Gotta love lances. :) While I can fully appreciate being wary of some sources, (for my WLD game, BOED and BOVD both got nerfed as well as Savage Species) but, to blanket bar non-core is perhaps a tad harsh. Although, looking at your comments Elephant, I would say that this is NOT what you did. You've already mentioned allowing other classes. THis has much more to do with a player pulling a hissy fit because he couldn't spend the thirty seconds of his own time to make your life easier. I really empathise with you on that. Drives me around the twist as well. [/QUOTE]
