Game Popularity: I would like to point out that we showed PoR at Gen Con - the largest gathering of hard core D&D fans in the US. We heard some complaints about the bards, gnomes, etc., but everyone stayed to watch and/or play.

In fact, every morning when the doors to the floor were opened, people would *sprint* to our area so they could get on the game first. We had to kick people off so that others could play and there was always a pile of gawkers hanging around. If the guys and gals at Gen Con love the game this much, then I have to believe that we accomplished what we set out to do - make a damn fine D&D game.

The Game Manual: Our manual has a Table of Contents and Appendices.

I apologize for my belligerent bout of brevity and hope that the following verbose response will alleviate your copious concerns
Our excellent manual contains, in detail, all character classes, races, skills, feats and spells as they are used in the game. This voluminous cornucopia of useful information is packed into a modest 140+ page manual (sorry for not having an exact page count, but I am extrapolating this number based on its size in electronic format). If you have more questions about the manual, I will be happy to answer them for you

All joking aside, I really am very busy - now that PoR has coded, a lot of people here are going on vactation - leaving me to deal with the last parts of localization and a huge amount of marketing stuff. Additionally, my other game is only a week or two from Gold Master.

And lastly (and, IMO, unbelievably), some people on our other forums have decided to start flame wars with each other about the world trade center bombings, which means that I have to spend a lot of time at those sites deleting and banning (which I *hate*). Speaking of which, I'd like to thank everyone here for their kind words regarding this week's tragedy and for being respectful of each other on this volatile subject.

Arrows: In PoR you get unlimited normal arrows. Magical arrows come in limited numbers. The arrows do not take up inventory space.

Multiclassing: A character who finishes the single player game will be between 16th and 20th level, depending on how much you did and how many characters were in the party. If you are concerened with "tainting" your ranger with another class, then multi your ranger with fighter or barbarian levels.
