[QUOTE="Belen, post: 2403822, member: 1405"] Brad: A lot of us are with you. I make sure to run at least two RPG events through my FLGS/month. I have found that just getting people to visit the store has made a difference. Also, I have noticed that a lot of people come to these sessions because they have no regular group and have not been able to make time for one. They do not always buy stuff, but I have noticed that the RPG section is picking up. I do not think that a lot of posters on this thread have any clue about what is happening behind the scenes. It seems that a lot of younger people are ONLY concerned about price and feel that there will be some type of business around to "serve" them no matter what happens. They are wrong. And, I have just received word that Star Wars d20 is officially dead. No more products are planned and all support for the game is finished. The SW d20 game has been completely replaced by the Star Wars Miniatures game. I wonder what those people buying from Amazon will say when D&D moves to a collectable miniatures game with no RPG support. Wizards makes a lot of money off there minis line and stores have no trouble selling them. [/QUOTE]
