Right on, and now we have the SRD which I have checked out, 13th Age is definitely not for me, got some cool ideas, but nothing I plan on using, and the number bloat (10d8 long sword damage, etc) is even worse than 4th Ed.
What are people taking from 13th Age to use in 3.xE D&D or Pathfinder?

I like healing surges better than recoveries and plan to just keep the static 25% surge value. I was also thinking about adding the versatile weapon thing so 1-handed heavy melee weapons would be bumped to d10 and 2-handed heavy melee weapons would be bumped to d12. The 1-handed heavy weapons would have the attack penalty (if any) of the 2-handed heavy melee weapons when used 2-handed.
i can't think of any else I would add to 13th Age. I have simplified the classes some to make it simpler so I take away more then I add.

Orc's Nest is still around? Cool! I have a tea mug from there from back in the 90's
I really dislike skills, so the backgrounds replacing it is gold for me. I prefer that much more, and would definitely port that over given the chance to run a 3.5/PF game. I would also steal the escalation dice and definitely the rules for basing (I dislike combat grids). Oh, and One Unique Thing is pretty cool too. Definitely would take that as well.

Yep, still going strong and run by the same people. I've been going there for 25 years now!
Pretty much going with full on replacement here. The power-train and chassis on this vehicle is much better. I'm scrapping the old model for parts. I just want to be very careful about action economy and time-sinks before porting anything too original D20 OGL. I think the Archmage Engine carved off most of the worst features of the old SRD.

Ah, yeah, that I do like, I used something similar back in the day (Zones).
