I enjoy 4E but I have to agree with you about the core races. That bugs me too.JRRNeiklot said:Tieflings, Dragonborn as core, but gnomes, halforcs are not.
I'm also disappointed by the absence of certain classes; barbarians, druids and swashbucklers in particular.
And I'm angry about the missing monsters in the MM: frost giants, clay golems, centaurs, pegasi and merfolk to name a few.
I admit to being something of a traditionalist: I like fantasy based on mythology, folklore, legend, classic literature and (to a lesser extent) on old school D&D races, classes and monsters. I don't mind the new game mechanics but I'm most unhappy that WotC is trying to redefine fantasy (see the quote of Clavis in my sig).
