[QUOTE="malcolm_n, post: 4960964, member: 63154"] Hi everybody, [sblock=Background]About two weeks ago now, I was playing around with the idea of taking other game ideas; be they Pen and Paper, mmo, video game, etc. and writing them out for 4e D&D. Mostly, it's a means by which I could transition one of my campaign worlds over in which the 3.x incarnation allowed my players to be just about anything they wanted, within reason and scale of power. My friend, who also happened to play in the campaign at the time, suggested that I start with what's freshest in my mind right now. So, I took a look at FFXI and started with a conversion of some weapon skills. Their current form in this exercise is as Weapon powers, which any class can pick and use if it has proficiency in the required weapon type.[/sblock]So, here's the first example I have that I wanted to post and preview. I'm working on others, and also wanted to see if there are any requests out there for particular games, characters, or other things the fine people of this site would like to see converted to 4e D&D.[sblock=FFXI Axe Weapon Powers Preview] [COLOR=Green] [B]Mistral Axe - Axe Attack 1[/B][/COLOR] [B]At-will * Weapon[/B] [B]Standard Action Ranged [/B]special [B]Target:[/B] One creature [B]Requirement:[/B] Must be wielding a one-handed axe.
