[QUOTE="Hussar, post: 6249533, member: 22779"] From memory, Basic D&D had no rules for buying a horse, so, it's not a surprise. Sure, and I agree with that. But, like the 2e books say, if you're futzing about with basic equipment lists from the PHB, the DM typically informs the player beforehand. Or, at worst, it might be, "Oh, sorry, no horses in my world" if someone comes to the table with a horse. But, barring something like that, I'd stand by the idea that PHB equipment lists aren't really something that comes up that often. Sure, situationally it might change - no horses might be available, but, it would likely be pretty obvious when that's true. Meh, it's a pretty minor issue AFAIC. Bedrockgames - I'd point out that there are many, MANY threads on En World where this sort of thing gets talked about endlessly. The changes that Continual Light has on a game world, just to name one example, saw people arguing that the Gods themselves would get involved in shutting down clerics from lighting up the city. All sorts of extra-curricular rules start getting added to stop magic from radically altering the setting. [/QUOTE]
