[QUOTE="JeffB, post: 6119602, member: 518"] It has a couple of cool mechanical elements that I am using in a houseruled C&C game: I have replaced the existing Siege Prime/Not Prime mechanic with Prime=Advantage ala NEXT. Also expertise dice for Fighters. I also use alot of elements from 3.x/PF and 4e too..all distilled down to a.CnC/OD&D level of complexity and quick play. I will wait for the final rule set and check it out, but after a year, I think I am more in love with the idea of DDN, than in love with what I have actually seen. I gave up playtesting after packet 4 or so, cos none of the players were interested in radical changes from packet to packet and relearning things. With gaming time at a premium, it was a waste of that time. IMO, NEXT doesnt seem tobe doing a great job o the DM.side of things like 4e, the player options seem thin and what is there can be awful fiddly in play,and it is too modernistic/post Gary to pull in the typical pre 3e/ OSR fan.
