[QUOTE="Angellis_ater, post: 4353591, member: 37442"] Warlock - OGL name as an "Arcanist Path" in World of Warcraft RPG, 2nd Edition, page 62. Oldtimer is unfortunately correct that Monte left the Breather mechanic out of the OGL. Does anyone own Fantasy Concepts or perhaps Jason himself can tell us if there is a 2nd Wind mechanic in there that is OGL? 2nd Wind/Stamina/Healing Surges have a commonality with Reserve Points ([url]http://www.d20srd.org/srd/variant/adventuring/reservePoints.htm[/url] ) from Unearthed Arcana. The same can be said for Vitality as a faster way of returning HP ([url]http://www.d20srd.org/srd/variant/adventuring/vitalityAndWoundPoints.htm#healing[/url] ) A basis for increasing AC (together with saves) can be found in the Defense Bonus rules of Unearthed Arcana ([url]http://www.d20srd.org/srd/variant/adventuring/defenseBonus.htm[/url] ) and here: [url]http://www.12tomidnight.com/d20modernsrd/Defense.php[/url] Powers is used in True20 to denote ANY supernatural ability, from jumping high to breathing fire. It also offers the use of Ritual Magic, if we need a secondary source for Rituals. Recharge Magic is a good basis for Per Encounter powers ([url]http://www.d20srd.org/srd/variant/magic/rechargeMagic.htm[/url] ) Weapon Groups works as a basis for the new "groupings" of weapons and armor ([url]http://www.d20srd.org/srd/variant/buildingCharacters/weaponGroupFeats.htm[/url] ) Complex Skill Checks is more or less a verbatim for Skill Challenges in 4E ([url]http://www.d20srd.org/srd/variant/buildingCharacters/complexSkillChecks.htm[/url] ) Someone asked where Heroic appears within the SRD: [url]http://www.google.com/cse?cx=015155386140379294602%3Ak9hv7ukafn4&cof=FORID%3A1&q=heroic&sa=GO[/url] MANY references to "heroic fantasy", heroic classes, heroic abilities, heroic uses of skills, heroic actions. So that ain't a problem. Saves into Defenses are from [url]http://www.d20srd.org/srd/variant/adventuring/playersRollAllTheDice.htm[/url] but that has already been quoted, right? Movement as squares can be found here: [url]http://www.12tomidnight.com/d20modernsrd/Movement.php[/url] Too tired to find more references. Please post what you've got trouble finding reference points for and I'll see what I can do. Other suggestions for good books/PDFs are always welcome. [/QUOTE]
