[QUOTE="Celebrim, post: 5290040, member: 4937"] I don't play E6, but I'm highly sympathetic to its aims and play in a style I think most E6 DM's would recognize. My current campaign is now at 10 5 hour sessions. We play roughly every two weeks, so we are about 5 months into the game real life. The characters are 2nd level (and about 1/2 to third). At the current rate, I expect after 18 months of gaming to be 6th or 7th level. We'd barely be 'epic' in an E6 game. If we were younger, we might play every week. In 18 months playing every week we might make it to 10th or 12th level, or perhaps in E6 something like 6th level plus 12 or 15 feats. While 100 feats is in theory possible, I think in practice most E6 groups will finish their main story lines, retire their PC's, and make new characters before they get over 30 extra feats. Huh? I thought much of the point of E6/E8/E10 was to play in the 'heroic' 'sweet spot' of D&D (generally seen as roughly 3rd-8th level) where non-casters and casters were well balanced. I don't play E6 so I'm not familiar with all of its complexities, but are you saying that E6 spellcasters are much stronger than E6 'fighter types'? [/QUOTE]
