[QUOTE="Thunderfoot, post: 3760003, member: 34175"] Hey Mike, I had this discussion with my players and my fellow DM this last session and we kind of came to this conclusion: We have a very expansive campaign with epic scope that no one is willing to just stop and drop. The designers have stated many times that conversion is not worth the effort, so we have decided to play it middle of the road. We have a small core group play-test (our current party numbers 12 and is ran by two DMs simultaneously) the rules in April with the quick start module. If it appears that the rules are just too alien or unwieldy then we will finish the campaign (which may take three or four years to complete) and then convert to 4e. If it means work to convert but isn't completely impossible (we do have gnomes in the party so it could get hairy) then I'll take a month or two off and come up with a reasonable re-design to use. There isn't enough information to say we will or will not do anything, but we have been planning the contingencies just in case. :) Considering a large group of us are former service members, contingency plans are just Standard Operational Procedure (SOP).
