It speaks to how complete a view of the situation you have, and adds credibility to your argument.

Until you said "6", you weren't looking very credible. And, you still kind of don't, because apparently you don't understand why playing a few characters in the cabal you're critiquing is important.

Just my two cents as a perpetual forum lurker and occasional player - what you're saying about years of Outlander roleplay ignoring adamantite doesn't ring any bells for me.

Further, it sounds like you're asking to put adamantite in a position more like iron/mithril/whitesteel, which doesn't jive with me either. AFAIK, Outlanders won't use adamantite on issues of principle, not because adamantite has some physical/magical properties to it that will #### them up. Adamantite is revolting, but not in a "I will totally burn your flesh off" kind of way. It serves a different role in outlander's life than mithril (for example) serves in a dark-elf's world, and I think that's fine and cool.
