Lastly that brings us to people that play 3e.  Admittedly that people that frequent the boards here are more likely more deeply involved in the hobby that the casual gamer, but the opinions here run the full gamut, it's like a mirror of the 3e fanbase in which everything is intensified.  A revision is only going to be appealing as a revision to those who care about it.  For those who don't a revision may as well not exist (in this case as the changes are going to be rather unextreme from the look of things).  With all that in mind I think it is reasonable to assume that ENworld is a pretty good indication of the target market for this particular product.Well that is my chain of thought on the matter anyway.</blockquote>
