So, in order to get us excited aboiut this set, which I was already looking to be a stinker, They show us 3 PC minis out of 4 in the 2 previews thus far (and the stupid titan was a dud too). WTF!!! No one gets excited about PCs. Well, I might if you made a Human Psychic Warrior with a 2-handed Mace named Julio Sanchez, Man of Renown, but otherwise keep the PCs away from the previews.
It's bad enough that of the 16 preview minis, 12 are the same 12 from the blurry GAMA photo. Come one, is a bunch of PCs and an Aspect of Quasimodo really how you want to build excitement for the once every 2 years huge set? |

Agreed I had/have high hopes for this set but when Kilsek showed me the pics I was upset. I like the dragon even with the wing.
But man this stinks! _________________ Gygax:The new D&D is too rule intensive. It's relegated the Dungeon Master to being an entertainer rather than master of the game. It's done away with the archetypes, focused on nothing but combat and character power, lost the group cooperative aspect, bastardized the class-based system, and resembles a comic-book superheroes game more than a fantasy RPG where a player can play any alignment desired, not just lawful good. Now, should I tell you what I really think [of it]?" |

| 2 Dragonborn doesn't surprise me at all. WotC seem to thing they are t3h gosu, so I was expecting 3-4. I am surprised that they are both rare, but not as surprised that they're both lame. |

| From the previews and spoilers currently available AtG is rating a big 2/10 snooze-fest for me...even DuD had some reasonably-useful figs... |
