I voted 'other' as I don't use them in the RL game I DM. They are in use in both of the Play-by-Posts I DM at the IC forum, but I don't think that counts.
The reason I don't use them in my RL campaign is that I don't like the rules. But I'm working on that part and you can get more info by following the link in my sig.

I use them but only once the party is at a level to encounter them. If you fail to save versus a Psion using creature then if you don't die:D you have the latent ability for it. Then at the next level you can multi-class into it if you wish. In game others who have the ability search you out to train if that is your wish.

Bendris, if you ever feel up to it, I'd appreciate you posting this over in the House Rules forum. :)
You should have asked while I was living in Lombard...

Now that I've moved 1800 miles away, you'll have to come get them yourself. :p

Seriously, though, they're still being built on. We did an early model that was quite functional, but was thrown together rather piecemeal. We've started a version 2.0 which is coming together nicely, though. You can e-mail me for the info if you wish.:D

Dude, that's cause you're playing Battletech. Sheesh.

Now that you mention it, the latest PC is a knight in full plate, who does a fairly good impersonation of a walking tin can....

Although in the last session, the only fight took place in the middle of the night when everyone was in their jammies. It's quite remarkable the damage a fiendish dire ape can do when everyone is AC 12 or lower.

(I'm using my Britannia 3E setting, which uses a tweaked OA shaman in place of clerics and druids, and the knight [tweaked OA samurai] in place of the paladin. I have one primary arcane spellcasting class, the sorc, and no monks.)

3E psionics disgust me and I do not use them. I wont stop a player from using them, but they'll be treated like a red headed step child.

I would and have used Ken Hood's skills and feats system however.

Yeah, it kinda sucks that try as I might I can't find his stuff anywhere on the Internet.
 

I'll probably get around to using it one of these days. It doesn't really fit in my current campaign though. I don't have anything against psionics, and I did buy the book, so I'm sure it's in my future.
