[QUOTE="EarthsShadow, post: 305596, member: 3531"] Who said this was going to be compatible with Dungeons and Dragons? Is Judge Dredd compatible with D&D or is it its own game just using the d20 system? Same for Everquest, which isn't even using the d20 gaming license and it not compatible with Dungeons and Dragons. If this really took off, I would not use the d20 gaming license also because frankly I think that its too limiting on what the potential really is. This would be Darkmatter/Alternity d20, not just another world that can be easily compatible with Dungeons and Dragons, which is not the goal. Not everything has to be compatible with D&D. To think that they all do is to limit us. As for having a AC of 37, sure, if your playing D&D. The likelihood if it happening in Alternity/Darkmatter which is more down to earth and realistic, then that would be no since the entire system would be based on the situational modifier and not AC. Therefore, no d20 licence and it would not require the PHB to be used. It would have its own book, its own world, its own rules, and it would be its own game, not just another copy. That is the goal of this. Why does everyone assume that anything made for d20 has to be compatible with Dungeons and Dragons? To think that is to limit us and the true potential of what could be created. [/QUOTE]
