I'm sure there's Prestige Classes that'll outshine the core classes, which is probably a problem for some folks out there. Personally, it doesn't matter to me that much. If you're actually starting out with a PrC instead of a base class. If you're allowing PrCs, chances are that people are...

Well I personally would hit it from a different direction... RPGNow.com - Misfit Studios - Unusual Core Classes: The Spellweaver So, what it does is it makes magic into a skill-based system. As a bonus, it includes all the SRD spells converted over for you. Hard to go wrong and it explains how...

I ran an E8 game that started at level 3. Worked just fine for me, it went about a year. I ended the game because I was moving, otherwise I'd probably still be running it. The main thread has all kinds of extra stuff; I personally thought an awful lot of it was missing the point. I personally...

All those commercial games that you've got that you haven't run/played because of a lack of players? They're more likely to get played and you're more likely to be able to find players for them. There's some really groovy cool games out there, but the truth is, the number of people that are...

The people that are confused about the OP's problem should notice that a bit after his first post, he mentioned he's in Australia. I realize this might come as a surprise to some people, but books over here in the Southern Hemisphere cost a _lot_ more. That $7 cheesy sci-fi book that you picked...

Without something a bit more concrete, it's going to be hard to really suggest something. Based on what you've said/shown though, I _think_ that Spirit of the Century by Evil Hat Games is going to be reasonably close to what you're talking about. It's not an exact match though. Then again, it'd...

You could always go with the Anime SRD, which can be fould here: SYSTEM REFERENCE DOCUMENT or downloaded in an easy to read pdf form here: FateRPG.Com: Fate: Fantastic Adventures in Tabletop Entertainment (TM) (Non Fate downloads) The Anime SRD(BESMd20) is set up as a level based system, with...

I too was attracted to the cover. :) I skimmed the book and thought, "Cool, this is what Eberron wanted to be but couldn't." I don't really know either Earthdawn or Jorune, so I can't comment too much on that. As for the balance thing... yeah. It's the thing I think that really stopped a lot...

Yeah, they really did try and open things up. It's mentioned in the book, but bear mentioning again... you can take just about any feat that you qualify for. Certain ones got a remake for Everstone, so it's always possible for the GM to give a similar treatment to other feats. And of course...

Sorta late responding here... been trying to sort out a bunch of stuff this past month with having made an international move. It's nice to see someone else is grooving on Everstone. If you happen to run a game, post something about it. As I've said before, it's got some quirks but it's a...

I'm in the middle of moving to New Zealand, but once we get settled... I really want to try and get a game of Hellas going. If you're not familiar with it, it uses the Omni system (derived from the Talislanta system) and then tweaks it to further fit its needs. And what does it need to do...

So, I'm trying to figure out whether or not I should ask for the 4th Ed books for XMas. At the end of the day, I've got no idea if the game is going to be cool or not. If I were to get the books, chances are I wouldn't be getting more than 3 books. Ever. Why? I don't see much point to it...

Ok, so here's how I "know": First, there's this thread on the WotC boards: GSL News - Wizards Community Relevant note: There's also of course the Q&A bit that was posted here at ENWorld...

So... What's the basis for your system? Meaning, how is it that you've arrived at the numbers you have? You're saying that the classes aren't "balanced"; what's your comparison for that balance and how is it that _your_ approach is making them balanced? What is the point of the system in the...

So.... I'm guessing you're saying that 3rd Ed could adopt a similar approach, and then people wouldn't have to switch to 4th Ed? People are making the edition change for a _lot_ of reasons. Monster Statblocks are only one of 'em. As for what you've done... Well, first I'll say it looks...

No offense, but it really doesn't matter. WotC has revoked the d20 STL. The amount of time that's left for publishers to dump their stock with the d20 STL Logo may be debatable, but the d20 STL _is_ dead. Version 6 of the STL says this: Last heard, WotC was...nice... and gave a 6 month...

Honestly? Just get M&M. Silver Age Sentinels isn't _bad_, but it's not popular. Everybody and their cousin loves M&M and if you wind up having questions or uncertainties, you'll be able to get plenty of advice. How _good_ the advice is might be up for debate, but that's a whole other topic. :D...

I'll note that what I've seen of the Quickstart rules doesn't even scratch the surface of the rules you get in the books. The quickstart rules are _much_ lighter it seems. A lot of the crunch in Exalted seems to come from their charms and stuff. If you groove on the whole optimizing thing and...

I bought my very first 3.5 book about 2 and a half years ago. I missed the whole initial roll out of 3rd ed and 3.5 too. I pretty much showed up for 3E on the downturn. :D I haven't ever felt much pressure in the past 20 years to upgrade to a different edition of anything. From WotC, the only...

So if the low levels of Force are too good and high levels are too weak... where's the sweet spot? And once you've got the sweet spot established, how do you tweak the Force so it's smoother/more useful across a greater number of levels?
