Baron Corun, you write long and gracefully, and I direct you to my other 
replies, especially to Lady Branwynn, for my answers, but to one point.

Actually, I am kind of crushed.  I would of thought Earl Dafydd would 
agree on the power of positive encouragement.  Of course, since I've 
stated as above that I am only defending a "slight" deversion, and not 
the intrusion of Klingons, it seems only reasonable there are areas, as 
others have stated here, which could be allowed though discouraged.

How can anyone not agree with that?

As for whether Assassins are in or out, I don't know.  Are Elves 
appropriate, I'll let Baron Hossein argue.  Are Aztecs appropriate, or is 
Sir Ix a gatecrasher?  Klingons, I'm willing to argue, are right out, 
based on my understanding of the limits of the game (and I know how 
people argue them in).
