That was my reaction, too.

Same here. I played in a game a few years back, and personally I thought the charts in character creation were more fun than the game itself.

I don't have my PHB in front of me, but I know it is in there, in the combat section if I'm not mistaken.

I believe it is -3/-6.

I'm the opposite, I'm a big fan of less is more, and C&C is not immune! I don't mind the thirteen classes at all, but the BOXED SET, if it was a bit more "up to speed" compared to how amazing and professional the PHB and M&T looked, would be the perfect product for me.

Ordering Haunted Highlands yesterday morning for $10 w/shipping to my front door included reminded me that whatever they use to keep costs down is good 'nuff for me as well. I mean, even Dungeon magazine costs 6 or 7 bucks these days.
