[QUOTE="JeffB, post: 7134380, member: 518"] Other than I feel 4e monsters have more variety, and I prefer a couple 4e classes over their 13th Age counterparts, I guess I like how 13th Age handles most things vs. what you [MENTION=63492]ve4grm[/MENTION] mentioned you prefer in 4e. Before 13th Age came out, I stripped down 4e quite a bit for my kids group. I eliminated the grid, replacing/rewriting powers with similar abstractness (?) as 13A did, or just eliminating things that were too tied to the grid. I think you may want to incorporate some 13A into your 4e instead of vice-versa. E.g. I got rid of marking (not a big deal as we only had a slayer). Powers would have something like "affects 1d3 creatures at short range". I would get onto the Monster Builder in DDI and just re-write/change the powers of Monsters/NPCs and print them out. This is something I dearly miss. For all the hate they got, I loved the DDI tools for tweaking and printing out monsters/items, etc. [/QUOTE]
