[QUOTE="The_Warlock, post: 2071857, member: 21215"] So, I've bought, I've read, I've found the baseline D20 variant system that meets ideas I've always wanted to incorporate into my campaigns but always been somewhat stymied while trying to remain true to the more Core D&D rules to achieve them. I find the "True20" system presented as well designed for introducing new players unfamiliar with the rules, and yet with a level of character customization that allows jaded oldbees to make their unique and individualized hero. I don't intend to use the campaign setting, just the system. In fact, I intend to use the system for just about any campaign setting I run. I see easy use based on class restriction/feat listing to allow definition of most genres: High Fantasy, Low Fantasy, Modern, Superhero (esp with MnM being a precursor), Sci-Fi, Space Opera (esp Star Wars) - with fair ease. The fact that it is based on the D20 system also means that all the books I have bought since 3E are compatible with a simple run through the conversion appendix. What I'm interested in is if there is anyone out there of a similar outlook? Also, as I do the first pass through to convert much of my currently incorporated rules/feats/etc to this system mechanic, are there sources out there that anyone thinks would be a great mesh with the True20 system for the various genres listed? Feats, magics that would easily slip into the skill based arcana system, etc, etc? Also, are there any non-High Fantasy campaign worlds (I use good ole FR for my high fantasy) out there that would be a great match for the system? [/QUOTE]
