[QUOTE="I'm A Banana, post: 4558927, member: 2067"] Whopp-i-dee-doodle. If my legs are sawn off, I can manage pretty okay with a wheelchair. It doesn't mean it doesn't [B]suck[/B] that my legs are sawn off. It sucks that her published stats have her at Huge. What I can do in my own home games to fix the problem is kind of irrelevant. And the reason for that suckage being Plastic Logic just rubs salt in the wound. Like sawing off my legs to protect me from badly polished toenails. "But I don't even polish my toenails!" "Ah, but some people with perhaps more disposable income do! And if you're not a fan, well, you can always use that wheelchair, right? Good as new!" It's not like I'm going to scream at the nerd-gods because they made a rule based on their little plastic toy or whatever, but it's ridiculous, and whether or not I can fix the problem doesn't really change the fact that it's still entirely ridiculous and deserving of me pointing a finger and laughing at it in a public forum... That doesn't mean she doesn't rock the casbah at what she was designed to do, that just means that what she was designed to do isn't as useful to me as what she could/should have been designed to do. So I'll end up ignoring those stats like nuclear waste and maybe going yet another edition without fighting Tiamat. No big deal, really, but they could've done better, I think. ;) [/QUOTE]
