SAGA was ahead of its time. I love its simple but fun (Only time you will hear a Tinker Gnome praise something as "simple"!) mechanics. I would use it to run DL in any age to be honest. Sadly I think part of the reason SAGA never caught on is because Gamers are REALLY addicted to dice. I wish...

I don't think the Dark Powers could hold Chaos. It is basically an Overdeity.

I am definitely in the former camp, which is why I liked most of the Age of Mortals novels, both pre and post War of Souls. I also feel that post War of Souls is great as a gaming setting because of so many different options present for characters.

The Spencer Mansion from Resident Evil 1 is probably my favorite dungeon of all time.

3.0 Psionics used all of the stats for using Psionics. I think the STR based one was called an Egoist.

A Warlock without EB is like bread without bread.

Yes, very evil. Unless you intend to free any souls from the coins you get.

The "Innate Gift" the Wizard has is having a good Int score and having the interest and patience to pursue magical study.

@M.L. Martin Do you still have the text of the DL anti-canon? I remember really liking it but I do not have it saved anywhere. I used to be on the old DL Forums under the name of "Tinker".

Such spells fell under the domain of Mysticism, and since there were no characters classes you could have a character with up to three schools of sorcery and three spheres of mysticism. And even wear armor and use weapons if you have the stats for it.:)

Fifth Age is great!:) SAGA is best DL game system.

Good stuff! Good to get more DL stories no matter the format!:)

Rolling the attack roll and damage roll at the same time can be a waste of a good damage roll though.:)

@kigmatzomat Great to hear someone running a DL game and making the setting their own.

I hope they do not retcon anything after Legends. I loved the Fifth Age and the post War of Souls world. Far more gameable material there than the War of the Lance era.

Sorcerers have been in DL since the Dragonlance SAGA game technically, although it is not the same as the 5E Sorcerer. The 3.5 supplements had to use the default 3.5 Sorcerer with some tweaks to the flavor (DL Sorcerers are not Bloodline based, but learn their magic like Wizards). I have no idea...

I honestly would have preferred more base classes over Prestige Classes, but I like a lot of classes. EDIT: OH, one thing I would change is the required magic items to hit certain monsters. I would change it so say a Devil requires cold iron weapons to hit, not a +3 sword or whatever. Or all...

I started on 3.0 and then moved to 3.5 once it came out. Looking back on it my group ignored A LOT of rules. There were also some "rules" that crept in from video games and such. Overall 3.X still feels the most like D&D to me, especially the artstyle. I still have the basics of the ruleset...
