[HoE] No TSR Bashing Here...Well not much

A little butt kissing...That must be why I like Dark Sun so much.

I followed the herd (bah, bah) because I could never get a feel for the
world. Too vague in my opinion. I recently got into a game and discovered
Dark Sun (guess I'm too late there) which made me look at the other world
books (like Birthright [again I get on the bus a little late]) and found
flushed out worlds. Sense then I've found I like what's been going on over
there. So I guess what I'm trying to say is if you really look at what they
are doing now it not as easy to bash them.

Little more butt kissing...Though D&D can't compare Deadlands & HoE (mostly
cuz I'm not that in to medieval fantasy)
