Rules/meta excerpts

WHAT THIS MEANS FOR JUNIOR LEAGUE PLAYERS: Beyond the flavor of play that these changes imply, there are a few practical changes that affect game play. (1) Buying things, anything, will be severely limited in any region. Even the basic equipment sets may not be available in many locations. Scrolls, magic items, amulets of classes, or ANY specialty type item cannot be purchased out of game. Anything beyond an equipment set (including armor of any kind) will be rare and thus need to be bought in game with the GM’s approval. You cannot assume you can just trade items for what you want, the economy has gotten worse and thus you are very limited in what will be available. Custom items will be unheard of in most regions.
