[QUOTE="Cheiromancer, post: 1282320, member: 141"] Don't worry- the topic is not dead. I haven't contributed because I don't have the time right now to sit down and really work through some of the issues raised. One big question relates to the weather seed and what factors can be applied to it - it is basically the question of what apocalyptic spells are feasible. Another other big question (for me at least) relates to the whole question of mitigating factors, especially the involvement of other casters. A third question would be to define seeds (as per Sep's suggestions) and a way of combining them so that certain epic effects could be produced around specified levels (again, as per Sep's suggestions). It seems likely that some system could be worked out that will approximate these goals- but it would take a lot of trial and error to make it work out. On a side note, Upper_Krust's Immortal's Handbook is supposed to have an alternative epic system. I must admit that I am hesitant to get deeply into this project when U_K's system is likely to be superior to anything I could cobble together. [/QUOTE]
