[QUOTE="ColonelHardisson, post: 48239, member: 363"] So does 3e. Well, Illusionist isn't separate in 3e, but Druid sure is. It has its own spell list. This is very subjective, but OK. 3e has 3. Very simple and inuitive. Since it's very evident you haven't played or even read 3e, this is a judgement without any real substance. Well, it was called Deities & Demigods back when I played 1e. But, yeah, the pictures were great. 3e Oriental Adventures has new classes also, and is not that different from 1e. Al-Qadim, or Arabian Adventures, was a FANTASTIC book, almost universally praised. You might want to actually read it before judging it. 3e has the Barbarian as a core class. The Assassin is a Prestige Class, very different from kits. Kits don't exist in 3e. Then you're missing out, and basing your decision on 3e according to how bad 2e was. 3e is very different from 2e. Yes, you did, but it sems like you may never have even heard of 3e. It's not 2e at all. Anyway, if you like 1e that much, great! You might want to check out HackMaster, especially if you want to preserve your 1e books. [/QUOTE]
