[QUOTE="GMforPowergamers, post: 8632393, member: 67338"] it does require change... just things you don't think count who? and I have never heard such... and around the 2e/3e switch and 3e/3.5 I was very active in the community. the closest I heard was WotC ruined Gary's game while 2e evolved gary's game... again I am far from an expert, the few times I did oneshots back to 1e I can't recall how to hit... but I have been told that math changed for more then 1 class. Maybe we can get someone that played both who remembers... but for now I am NOT taking your word for it. the only complaints I have made are that you are pretending things wont change at alll and I fear they will not change enough... however our disagreement is what counts as a rule. so is Rifts compatible with D&D? the both have classes they both have to hit rolls where you roll d20 and add a modfire against a dc.... the closest you can get me is they MAY be theoretically comparable and they WILL be in ad and office word be said to be... but like every edition change we will see a little over lap the first few months maybe the first year, and after that the majority of tables will just move on to 1 of 2 choices (keep to teh 2014 rules, or go with the 2024 rules) there will be out liers... maybe as much as 10% in year 2 that like you will hold out complatibleity... but every year there after that number will shrink more and more until t is bearly a foot note. wasn't true from 1e to 2e wasn't true from 3e to 3.5 (I will give you it was true from 4e to essentials) and my bet is it wont be anymore true in 2024... my hope would be as big a jump as 2 to 3 or from 3.5 to 4 but I doubt it... it will resemble more the 3 to 3.5 every rule is a rule... I don't care what chapter they are in... each rule exception is expressed as a rule. if you can sit down at any table and use the race/class/background from 2014 that's fine... but we already know you CAN NOT use the race. We suspect you will not be able to use the background, and we know that class and spells are both being worked on. the very fact that elf will not be the 2014 elf shows the change... but maybe if it was ONLY elf I could see it but it will be every race.
