> Halflings will be dixies

Hey Dave!  Better watch what you call a dixie!  Halflings are only second to
Dwarves.  Goblins are puds!!  8)

Actually, I don't think you are referring to Halflings as dixies in the DM
context, right?  I really can't see anyone having a DM dixie in AG.  Who wants
a throw away character in AG?  Halflings are fun (just get hit in the head all
the time).

> Elves should depend on spells.  They are not very good at fighting.
> Goblins will generally be quick.

Well, you COULD make a slow Goblin.  It all depends on what you make your
Dex and Cunning.  I'd have to say Paz is pretty quick...

> Dwarfs will be slower and hardier than humans.

Slow?  Well, okay.  So Dex costs 6 initital.  But Stamina only costs 3
initital.  That can make for a lot of points in the other three areas since you
can afford to start with a low Stamina.  Magic can be gained by Dwarves but the
costs are very high.  Besides, who needs magic when you can chop someone in the
legs all the time.

Well, yes the quicker guys have an advantage but they better be able to do
damage or that quickness is going to help.

GO WITH THE DWARF!!!  Just my personal preference.  ;)

Sure, go ahead.  I think this group should talk about something else besides
DM and Legends.  It adds to the variety.  Plus we can all disagree about how to
make and run a character.
