[QUOTE="Lord Mhoram, post: 5831561, member: 4789"] System is more important. You can have a game without adventures (other RPGs do it all the time) - now they won't have the mainstream success that D&D has, but it happens. If you have adventures and no system, well, you can't do anything. So by simplifying it to "can one work without the other" the answer, obviously is system. :D However - adventures are very good things to have. I've run non D&D games for over decade only using 3 or 4 normal (not lifepath sytle) adventures in that whole time frame; and I"ve have 1 year old D&D games that hinged on adventures, and would likely have failed without purchased ones. I would love to see a flood of third party adventures like we saw a the dawn of 3rd - the mini modules and all the way through Rappan Athuk or The Worlds Largest Dungeon. Because adventures are not essential to a game system, they can be really important. [/QUOTE]
