I agree completely. Somebody upthread suggested the superclass idea be replaced with tags. I must say I like the idea of certain magic items being limited to certain tags only. But the master thief example is not something I like. How would he know what tag the character has? Tags/superclass...

Guys, I'm making an OGL project and I need to know: is the phrase "System Reference Document" or the acronym "SRD" considered PI?

1. a cross between Pathfinder and 3.5 e 2. D&D Next (latest public playtest packet) 3. 3.5 4. Pathfinder 5. AD&D 6. other d20 OGL games P.S. 3.5 outranks PF only because I am more familliar with it. And I lumped other d20 together because every one has something I don't like. Eventually I plan...

You mean backgrounds supersede skills?

Thanks for explaining protection. Do you use attack vs. AC too or is it just protection vs. damage?

Aye, that is a problem. I've seen various OGL projects heap on rules changes, but the basic mechanics remain unchanged. So are they look/feel or not?

If you want the +1 backgrounds to be used, what about a house rule that makes you pick a +1 background?

Yeah, I get that feeling too. The WotC wants the best, but the best are creative and therefore want to pursue other stuff, and therefore are forced to leave... not a good situation IMHO.

The problem with GSL is that the 4E SRD is basically nonexistent. Ah, right, fair use. In this case, we'd best hope for the OGL to make a return.

I don't understand why we can't have a trademark license. And I don't get how saying "Compatible with D&D Next" is a trademark problem - after all, "D&D Next" is used in reviews and all over the forums here. Anyone can explain?

Why do you want all races to have a +1 to all stats? It makes them uniform and devalues the bonuses.

The FAQ isn't helpful (and I'd say it isn't true - did we ever see SRD expanded?)

What's stopping the D&D Next version of OGL to require the publishers to print something similar?

I heartily support using the OGL except for setting-specific stuff. Just look at Pathfinder.

I don't understand . Surely 2x(1d8) per round is better than 1d8 per round?

On topic: do you use Unaligned? Because I can't imagine Unaligned in PS...

I'm not sure I understand everything, but my main wonder is: why only three abilities? The other question is: how does protection work? I'm not seeing any issues with the d4 damage otherwise.

What's the average TN in your system? That will help us decide how important the change to ability modifiers is...

This is a very good idea. I used to poke around various homebrew stuff. Do you want the SRDs too?

This is a very good point. Hey, do we have a base of OGL-related questions and tidbits?
