Throw in The book o experimental might 2, which allows fighters not only their usual take a feat every level, but the ability to change out feats they no longer use and you have the options you seem to have wanted from 3.5There's no way you can compare a modern rpg to 1st edtion.  Its like comparing old magic the gathering decks to new ones.  1st edition and to an extend 2nd would be considered broken by todays standards.  Despite being loads o fun back in the day I am not sure I get your argument on skills, it seems that your suggestion is that every player should be able to have every skill maxed simply because they are adventurers, and that just doens't work from a party balance point o view. I took a view of my current party, at 7th level, and even in pathfinder they are pretty much able to, as a group accomplish 10th level traps and challenges on average. My thought is that this must be an april fools joke, as 4xing the power level of a current d&d player means 4xing every encounter just to provide a challenge.  And though there are players who play the game to have the best character, there are others who play for the challenge,m others who play or the RPGing and a dozen other reasons why people play.  Your game would be great for the power gamer, but the average d&d player would quickly get bored and leave for some more normal pastuersI know a guy who lives near me and has , essentially, sent so many gamers my way.  He thinks a lot like u, in that the fun of the game is in super characters, and runs games where he has all his players play gesalt characters starting at epic level.  Unfortunately, as noted on this bored, without a sklled DM, the game is broken at mid epic level and thus his players have no real fun rolling 16 dice a turn.I'm not dissing u or your system, but it only works for one kind of player attempting to do it in D&D.  What I would suggest is trying several of the systems onthe market that do not have limitations on skills, essentially a player has "skills" and they roll with the dm factoring in the apprpriateness at their level.</blockquote>
