You make me sound like a Chinese travel agent.

Kim is the most popular last name in Korea, not China. So I think you sound like a Korean travel agent, not Chinese. Now, if he referred to you as Mr. Lee, then I would think Chinese.

Holy cow, there seems to be some history and issues between the two - at least from what I read. Maybe that's old news to everybody else. Not sure what you are exact...

Careful - I'm the one who preaches for a living.

You might want to be more specific here. Are you preaching about the Aryan brotherhood or a carpenter? Don't want people to attribute to you the wrong ideals.

<t>Speculation is all that we have in terms of the success of 4E. For the record I do not like 3E, or probably 4E nor do I like C&C. So I have no vested interest in any of these "winning."<br/> <br/> I do think WotC is taking a risk. Here is what we know from the past. D&D very successful. A...

<t>Whether or not it succeeds, I understand the direction of 4E. I do not have the 3.0+ figures at hand, but their sales are better than 2E, but only about 75% of OAD&D. Most of the "rpg" market is in computer games. <br/> <br/> So, if you are wanting to grow your player base, you need to compet...

<t>I think the best thing you can do is play it and see for yourself. It all comes down to personal taste. For me C&C is not a game I want to play. Given the choice between this and 3E I wil prefer C&C. Given the choice between AD&D and C&C I will play AD&D. This is all about tas...

<t>I do not think we need to draw as strong of a line as James has, although that is one possible interpretation. S&S are swashbuckling tales of adventure that are generally humancentric. Not to say there are not other races, but tha the world is built and mostly controled by humans. Magic has m...
