[QUOTE="firesnakearies, post: 4931006, member: 71334"] Hey all. I LOVE Dark Sun. Love it more than any other fantasy setting, ever. It's always been my favorite, since it first came out. I'm thrilled that WotC is releasing a new version of it for 4E. Also, I -like- 4E D&D, and play it a lot. But as I've been re-reading all of my Dark Sun stuff, and thinking heavily about the Dark Sun campaign I want to run, I've come more and more to realize... ...I don't want to run it as a D&D game. I just don't. I'm tired of D&D, with its supreme gameyness and limited character customization, the straitjacket classes, the constant need to either sacrifice some theme for mechanical efficiency or vice versa. I want to run Dark Sun, but with some other rules system. Maybe even a combination of rules systems. Has anyone run any Dark Sun campaigns in other non-D&D systems? Or have a system that they feel would be very good for Dark Sun? Let's discuss possibilities! How can we bring the world of Athas to life without using D&D rules? What are some other RPGs out there that would work well as the backbone of a Dark Sun campaign? [/QUOTE]
