The down and dirty basics are what I didn't want to have to create.  Sure, you can take the Hero System rules and run a fantasy campaign with them, but if you don't have any guidelines, one guy's "greatsword" will do 2d6 and another guy's will do 6d6.I don't mind setting up a magic system of some sort, or even a couple... I just don't want to have to make up every single crappy generic monster from scratch.Sounds like with the Bestiary and Grimoire, I'll get a lot of what I don't want to have to build from scratch.Question - is endurance really used in FH?  That was one of the things I always felt was a pain about non-superhero games using Hero rules... you have to keep track of so much stuff, even when all you're doing is moving and attacking.And BTW, for a mostly D20 board, I got a lot of good answers.  I guess I probably would have gotten a lot more answers off a Hero board, but they would primarily hero players, and since I'm primarily a D&D player, I think I got more honest answers here.-The Souljourner</blockquote>
