Isn't that what happened with the Deck of Many Things? While they released both, the print issues resulted in the digital one being the only one available for months

where does this say anything about the October book? All it says is that the Eberron one is delayed, and that was to be released in a month

I assume they did, but who knows. In either case it is a strong indication that they did not sell. That Amazon still has some just means they had them in stock already, instead of also ending up at Ollies. If anything it shows that they are not selling that well given that they still have them...

Given the level progression, this seems to be the correct order Death in Freeport 1-3 Terror in Freeport 2-5 Madness in Freeport 4-6 Vengenace in Freeport 6-7 Crisis in Freeport 7-9 Crisis in Freeport says "Welcome to Crisis in Freeport, the seventh in Green...

if you dump loads of them for $2.99 at Ollies, I'd say it does explain things, regardless of whether some of them are available elsewhere for $40. If they didn't massively overproduce inventory / overestimate demand, they would not be dumped at Ollies

Yep, thanks for that

it gives a basic idea about how the NPC should behave, more would be better, but not even having that… that is not an excuse, they are all published by WotC and they should have some quality control steps that ensure things are written in a certain way. It’s not like all spells / monsters are...

didn’t those end up for pennies on the dollar at discount stores a while ago? If so, that probably explains it

I thought it is basically the OGL but with less wiggle room when it comes to what has to be open (for licensees). What makes it a lot less attractive to you?

some other poster said the 2 vs 1d3 is the order vs chaos classes or something like that and that it has a generic metacurrency name, but also a individual / thematic one per class. So these are not really vestiges they forgot about but deliberate design decisions - doesn’t mean you have to...

notice the word 'basically' ;) it clearly is not, I never claimed it was

it would not hurt to have more to go on than alignment for ‘major’ NPCs, whether BFIT and or by some other approach. In no way does this mean not even having alignment is ok however that maybe would be true if 20% or so had an alignment and it were missing from the others, but when none do…

obviously I was talking about the tables that use it, not the ones that don’t…

WotC is basically 100% of Hasbro profits at this point in time, revenue does not really matter as much...
