Which is fine.But it does mean that halflings are less integrated in the base game setting, makes their interpretations vary a lot, and make them look tacked on for "nostalgia points".Halflings are the Beastmaster Ranger of races. Something put in to capture a feel but not worked on enought to make... work. So  the onus become of the buyers to make sense of them and fix it.</blockquote>
