Yeah, its pretty grim work. Don't expect results until tomorrow afternoon GMT, earliest. I may not actually manage to shave a whole page off.

I'm better at editing than I am at layout but my tastes in d20 are a little off, and I don't really care to attack stuff outside that range (levels 1-6, spells 0th-3rd).
 


Beyond the bare minimum needed to run a game (skills lists, combat rules, etc.), my version would be structured thus:

1) I wouldn't include material that has been gathered elswhere, such as the Spell Compendium, or for which a Compendium is being planned (such as for Feats or Classes, if such are in the works).

2) I'd compile the Feats as a comprehensive chart with page references with symbols denoting campaign settings (if any).

3) I'd compile the Classes, broken down alphabetically as a list with page references with symbols denoting base archetype (Warriors, Priests, Arcane Casters, etc.).

4) It would include master weapons, armor and equipment lists.

5) A revised glossary.

6) Special attention would be paid to clarifying contentious rules issues- essentially becoming the replacement for the FAQ and other (occasionally) conflicting rules corrections, interpretations, and eratta.
 


That was probably the fault of someone brought up in Canada... check their handles. I suspect green_canadaslime

Who changed Armor to Armour in this document?

If you're trying to save space, stick to those American English spellings and save some u's. :)

I should perhaprs also point out that there is no effective gain to be made by removing those u's. They don't affect the overall space at all. :P

Instead, try to sympathise with the rest of us who struggle to read WotC books, mourning all those missing u's. What do you have against u?
