[QUOTE="Summer-Knight925, post: 5680210, member: 80297"] I see the only benefit from 3.x (vs 2e) is the attack system, the armor class being a higher number rather than a low table/chart/THACO (I'm still calculating mine..) which...if you had kept all the other 2e sides and what not...would be a great game. What's that? there is something very similar to what I said?---infomertial voice [I]that's right![/I][I][B]The Dungeon Crawl Classic Role Playing Game[/B][/I] which would also be good if not for the crazy dice, however I still want to get a copy and a set of Zocchi dice to go with. Which brings me back to my "D&D is what you make it" speech. I think for D&D to be fun, all I need is a few friends, some horrible-for-you-snacks, dice, pencil and paper, a dungeon and POSSIBLY a dragon. The rest is kinda, meh, not to say rules aren't cool or spells or classes, but ultimately, what will take the place of D&D will be D&D, you cannot kill it, it's like the metal (Tenacious D reference here), many have tried to defile the game, but the game was much to strong. That was of course until one dark and stormy night... [I]somewhere at WoTC HQ[/I] Hey guys! I've got an idea! D&D will never die, nothing will ever takes its place, however I still stick to my spells per day, lack of healing surges and even the ascending armor class era, you can keep your powers and you're THACO, just give me gold, girls, and good weapons...maybe a goat too...or some land....OR a vorpal sword, that would be [I]sweeeeeet[/I] --The Summer Knight.
