Nimble expansion

[aiouh]

Sell me on it.

5E content compatible game that takes a lot of design cues from Pathfinder 2e Remastered. Probably great for a group that is really exciting for a group itching to play a 5E with a lot more mechanical finesse but still doesn't want to play Pathfinder either.

I'm sure it is not actually this way, but that quickstart makes it seem like all PCs are humans. I would back it just for that, I think. But searching the art suggests there are the usual suspects.

Plenty of other options . One of my players is a rabbit like species.

I wonder about that "5E compatible" claim.

Eww.

Nimble 1.0 was fully 5e-compatible. Nimble 2.0, the "full" Nimble, requires a little extra work to convert from what I've seen. You can check the creature statblocks and character sheets for an idea of the differences.

If "compatibility" is just "slot in the Nimble version of this monster" then, okay, I guess. But I can do that literally with any system.

I mean, a GM can just limit the PC options to what they want to allow in the campaign setting. I've been doing that since I started DMing in 1989.

Oh sure. Players LOVE that.

So I just realized that Nimble5E was a thing. That PDF is still available. Anyone who has used it: how useful is Nimble5E for playing 5E? Does it improve things notably? Does it create any unnecessary problems?
