[QUOTE="dpdx, post: 621400, member: 188"] Thank you. The way I see it, content begets adventures, which beget content, which begets revenue and encouragement for Wizards. You watch - if that Core Worlds book is half as good as you say it is, you're gonna see the genre explode. Few people are DnD geeks, but everybody, their sisters and their dogs are SW geeks. If I get content, and if others get content, you'll suddenly see a BOATLOAD of adventure modules that are longer and more substantive than the ones they used to publish in Gamer, or on the WotC website. Most of them you'll be able to play for free, or for a nominal charge, like $3 to download them. And they won't have to be Infinities, so if you're heavy on Canon as a DM, or you don't like someone else's "what if," you can fit them into your EU without heavy tweaking. But at the bare, absolute minimum, you can play them without only having two different things to shoot at/deal with the whole time, and without being planetbound. (Which is incidentally why you cannot do a good adventure with just the RCRB.) (Full disclosure: I'm planning to write a series of adventures for public consumption that stay as true as possible to the Extended Universe. If I'm lucky, and encouraged by the speed of usable stuff coming from WotC, they'll eventually be as thick as Tempest Feud, all together. I want them to be meaty.) So far, my options for where to start the characters are Tatooine, Naboo, Cularin, and, uh... maybe Cerea or Eraydia, since they look promising on Rodney's site. That's three systems out of the entire universe. I'd much rather have them starting out at any one of the 32 core worlds. So today I stopped at Barnes and Noble, and where they had the book on their website, the store doesn't have it in the catalog except as 'not published yet.' Yeah, right. Anyway, they reserved me a copy when they get it, and they'll call me when it's in. So maybe I can follow everybody's advice, and relax... Thanks for bearing with my hissy fit, and I apologize if I annoyed anyone overly. [/QUOTE]
