[QUOTE="Wombat, post: 3507826, member: 8447"] I haven't played D20 in a bit and the last time I did it was such an extreme variation that it barely counted as such. I never was overly fond of hit points, charcacter classes, levels, alignment, or armour class. But having said all of that, I can still have some fun playing D20. It's sorta like McDonald's versus a real restaurant -- if I'm hungry and there is nothing else around, I have no problem eating at Mickey D's, but I would probably prefer somewhere else. Currently, due to changes in my gaming group, we are going through a flux period. We ended up [I]Ars Magica[/I], a system I love, and have been experimenting with a number of systems and settings. Come September or October I will be reviving an old setting of mine (New Mavarga) under a new set of rules (7th Sea, heavy variant -- like the system, loathe Theah). In the meantime, we have played a homebrew system, [I]All Flesh Must Be Eaten[/I], a bit of (old) [I]World of Darkness[/I], and it looks like we'll be doing a bit of playtesting for a new system & setting one of my buddies has come up with. I like coming back here because people talk about a number of topics beside D&D/D20/OGL, and the D20 threads that there are often come up with fascinating and unorthodox ideas and angles on the core mechanics. This is an incredibly friendly and welcoming site and it has been part of my nearly-daily routine since a little before 3e came out. I tend to post in fits and starts, but I have been made to feel welcome and have always enjoyed the comraderie of the community. :) [/QUOTE]
