[QUOTE="Azgulor, post: 4972577, member: 14291"] I never said it wasn't gritty (as gritty as Ep IV gets anyway...). I was commenting on the fact that some players, eager to run new race X from splatbook Y, often assume that in the middle of a city in a predominantly human kingdom, expect to be able to walk into a tavern and mingle like the various alien races were doing in the cantina. Can a campaign be set up to support that scenario and still be gritty? Of course it can. But to the OP's scenario, some players, upon hearing that the GM and other players want to run a city-based campaign in Altdorf in WHRP's Empire, decides to play a chaos-warped mutant and then balks at the idea that the populace, authorities, and Inquisitors will all try to kill him on sight... (Yes, the example is extreme but apparently without it I'm failing to convey the point I was attempting to make.) [/QUOTE]
