[QUOTE="Stormonu, post: 5932697, member: 52734"] I can kind of see where you're coming from here. 5E is supposed to be packing a lot of modularity in it, and I'm not sure I really agree where some of the base dials have been set. This edition [I]could[/I] require the most amount of houseruling simply because of modularity, and that's not something I really have the time or inclination for these days. Like the others have stated though, I think you're jumping the gun. I personally am waiting to see how the next few playtest iterations shake out before [I]loudly[/I] arguing against the design direction if I don't like how things are churning out. If I do have to cut & paste my own version of 5E, I won't go with the game, I'll just fall back to Pathfinder - with an occasional 2E or B/X game. However, if the final version is close enough that I can run 5E core with a single-sided, double-spaced 10-point sheet of rule mods (or preferably less) and enjoy it, it's very likely I'll give the final 5E a shot. Right now I think my rule mods for the current 5E playtest would fall in the half-page variety. But this is still in alpha mode. Things are likely to look very different in the next round and "firming up" a rules modification document at this time would be foolish. [/QUOTE]
