1) Blue dragons are not Neutral, they're Evil; Chaotic Evil, IIRC.

Ah, you are suffering D&D Edition Lag. It's a common condition, seen in those who have not yet updated their collection and/or are stubbornly pretending 4th Ed never happened. While chromatic dragons are still evil by default, not *all* of them are evil any more, and you will not get hounded out of your playergroup for having one that isn't.

....I'll go hide in my little geek corner now.

To be fair, the little I've seen of 3rd makes it look like Wizards stol--er, BORROWED a lot of the design improvements GURPS provided (though I'm pretty sure Spelljammer and Star Frontiers would still require completely new gaming systems, and you still have to buy a tube of dice rather than using 3D6 for everything. ) Not really much reason to go to a Fourth though.

What do Weis and Hickman think of the whole "chromatic dragons aren't all evil" philosophy? Does this mean someone other than Salvatore can play a CHAOTIC GOOD Drow with a 20 Dex...?


Hehe, Drow are a base race now They made them *work*! although I will still personally execute any player who rolls up a scimitar dual wielding ranger called 'Drizzle'.

Never been a fan of GURPS, and 3rd ed D&D had a lot of problems - most of which have been resolved with 4th, in my opinion. I never played 2nd (late starter, never roleplayed before going to university) so can't comment.
