WoTC Adventures and Supplements

[Gold Roger]

Our group uses lots of noncore stuff, so it only makes sense to use adventures using it as well. I don't particularly care though. One of the first thing I change in an adventure is the stats of the bad guys.

 

[BlueBlackRed]

Any published adventure is fine, and I don't care what encounters they put in there so long as they have a stat block for it and enough of a description for me to run it effectively.

 

[Arnwyn]

I choose the choice that was ala Dungeon magazine, with the caveat that it assumes any non-core content is reproduced with all the information required to use it in the adventure.

Yeah, what Glyfair said.

What Glyfair said....because

I want WotC to justify their supplements. I want to see it in adventures. I want 80% core and 20% supplements. I think that ratio would boost supplement sales.

I'll be an echo ;-)

I agree with what most of the posters here have been stating; as long as the pertinent information is reproduced for those of us without that particular supplement, then why not expand the possible horizons of an adventure by putting in cool stuff from other books.

I will also echo Dragonlancer and give a big thumbs-up to OGL material from other publishers (unlikely, but it would still be an indication that WOTC continues to support the Open Gaming License and 3rd party publishers).

Cheers,
Colin

I voted for Core + others. It will also be great if WotC actually utilised Open Content such as the Tome of Horrors series from NG. They set up this whole OGL and don't use it themselves.

Because they're not mainly interested in promoting other people's products, just the rules system.

Thanks, Shroomy. That's awesome to hear.

They don't like to do that (or at least that's waht they tell us freelancers), though they did it in the MM II.

And, just between you and me Dragonlancer, don't tell anybody else but I very obliquely made reference to some OGL stuff in a WotC product set for future release for that very reason (cross-pollenate the industry, so to speak). But we'll see if it makes it past the editing process.

Just be glad they're not TSA airport screeners.

Yep, that's my vote. Use extra stuff ... but don't assume I've bought extra stuff.

 

[Olaf the Stout]

What Glyfair, et al said. Extra stuff is fine, encouraged even, as long as the information is reproduced so that we can use it.
