[QUOTE="Upper_Krust, post: 4840732, member: 326"] Howdy Scurvy! :) I am sure I have explained numerous times what the changes to v6 are. The mechanical changes are very simple and take about two minutes to implement. [B][U]The mechanical differences in Version 6[/U][/B] 1) Apply the Silver Rule to all factor totals, not just factor totals less than 20. [I]NB. Previously, Factor Totals above 20 were supposed to simply subtract 3 rather than apply the x0.833 Silver Rule modifier.[/I] 2) Challenge Rating is no longer CR x2 = EL +4, its now CR x2 = EL +8. [I]NB. The minor added confusion on this is that its balanced to 3.5E Spellcaster Classes (which are more powerful), rather than the Martial Classes*. If you wanted to use a party of solely 3.5E Martial Classes then either change to my revised classes (using those as a guide to do the ones I haven't fixed) or use CR x2 = EL +6.[/I] *See my website for Revised Martial Classes which bring them up to balance.
