[QUOTE="AbdulAlhazred, post: 7530078, member: 82106"] It seems to, increasingly, be a framework which purports to adhere to OGL and provides the structure under which games LIKE 4e could be built using its rule structures. A D&D made with Forerunner would presumably be very close to 4e, and able to use 4e material effectively. Of course you could also build games based on it that are less like 4e. It is not, in and of itself, a playable game, though there is material available from the author and other participants, certainly when combined with existing 4e material, which would most likely be playable. I expect you'd have to be willing to adhere a bit more to the spirit of the rules than the letter, as a lot of terms and specific processes have been defined in somewhat different ways. I'd bet that a lot of highly RAW-dependent rulings and such would not automatically be applicable in the new system. Still, it is vastly closer to 4e than HoML is, though both of them are pretty '4e-esque' in their structure. [/QUOTE]
