[QUOTE="Wepwawet, post: 4124618, member: 56398"] Hey, your setting is very interesting indeed :D I might even steal some ideas :p I hope it's not copyrighted heheh (but i believe I'll only play published settings, as I don't have time anymore to create my own worlds) About some of your fears: The roles stuff: There's already two martial strikers defined, the Rogue and the Ranger. So don't worry about limiting classes to each power/role combination. Encounter powers: it's not much different from vancian magic, and it even makes more sense. Be it special attacks which require more effort, the right moment to do, and/or some special preparation beforehand... A set of conditions that only come once in a fight. (That surprise attack explanation doesn't make much sense to me :P) Rings: if their effects are too powerful, you wouldn't give them to lower level players anyway. If the designers decided that they'll be only usable at those higher levels, there must be a good reason for that. And you know that you won't have all races and classes in the first books... So if you need a full set of published races and classes you'll have to wait one or two years to switch. Or you can improvise. Or simply don't define some areas of your world until you have what you need. So, what's your veredict? :) I'd really like to know [/QUOTE]
