Of course, if there is a grade for condition, there must be a grade for the OOPness as well. Slightly OOP, moderately OOP, very OOP, highly OOP, ridiculously OOP...

Gee, aren't they OOP? Just sorta OOP, not extremely OOP....

Look, guys, if you want Dragons in this range, just be at the GenCon Auction late on Sunday. We typically have a couple of dozen of 'em left over, destinated for the trash dumpster, that sellers have simply abandoned rather than cart 'em home.

Waste paper.

How tragic! :cry:

Abandoned Dragons! When will people learn to spay or neuter their pets so this glut of unwanted Dragons will end? :cry:

Saying 3E crap is like saying dark night. Redundant.

Hate to burst your bubble, but 3e didn't start till the 270+

This is 252 and less.

Why the 2e hate? :wink:

There are no bad editions of D&D, just Boring Players and Unimaginative DMs.
