Are you serious? There is a wide of a difference in the way of writing. Many people I know who reads the Hârn supplements scratch their heads, opens a dictionary to find some of the odd words, and most of all, usually need to look up certain terms and facts. And these are english speaking folks that I know. D&D 3E OTOH can be read by anyone with a mild degree in the English language. I am not saying that is a bad thing, only that D&D seems to be written for wider audience, young as old. Hârn OTOH IS written with a style and flavor that will need some knowledge that you do not need with D&D.I am not saying this is good or bad, or blowing dust in this and that system, but there is a big difference. Video mentality is not what I think of when I see/read (not play...) D&D. I see more heroic campaigns and gaming that no doubt is fun for those who use it. But as I recall with all of the d20 mods and stuff out there this system could be used for any setting and type of gaming. That is probably what is so strong about its popularity. But I digress. HârnMaster is for me the ultimate system but I do not want to barge in here stroking my book and look slanderous at those who enjoy D&D. There is room for all kinds of games.But there is still a big difference in the writing style, for good or bad, between D&D and Hârn. Simple fact...</blockquote>
