[QUOTE="Mouseferatu, post: 1119094, member: 1288"] Hmm... I've read through the various posts there... So we're looking at going back to restricted multiclassing, back to a game with no skills or feats to differentiate Bob Fighter from Joe Fighter, and back to a game where only a thief can learn to pick a lock no matter how much the wizard may practice at it? No thanks. Count me out. I'm all for simplicity. And I truly believe a simpler version of D&D should exist for beginners or those who are intimidated by the size/number-heaviness of the core rules. (In fact, I've done work on such in my spare time.) In essence, a Basic 3.5. But 3.5-compatible 1E AD&D? No thank you. The concept sounds (to me) like the worst of both worlds--it lacks the options of 3.5, and it lacks the simplicity of Basic. Now, don't anybody yell at me for jumping to conclusions. I intend to follow this, and if it starts looking different, or I discover I misinterpreted, I'll happily admit to being wrong. But from what I've seen so far, I can't say the idea appeals. I [i]like[/i] being able to customize my characters. [/QUOTE]
