[QUOTE="buzz, post: 2408684, member: 6777"] I don't see any reason these things would not be present in a WFRP d20 game. Even if they were not, it seems to still qualify as d20 by Ryan's definition. I mean, True20 ditches those last two and addds on tot he second, and it's still recognizably d20 (if not d20STL). Only if the WFRP1 mechanics are strongly tied to the conception of the Warhammer brand you have in your mind. This is one of the reasons GR decided not to go that route, as I udnerstand it. Mehcanically, I don't think there's anyting about the WFRP play experience that demands its system over another; d20, WFRP, [i]Burning Wheel[/i], and GURPS would probably handle it fine. The Traveller universe is a good example of this. Classic Traveller, Megaraveller, Traveller:TNE, T4e, T20, and GURPS Traveller are all different systems, but are all recognizably Traveller (TNE may be an exception). The fanbase, however, would probably have issues with such a change. And, as Pramas said above, the brand is powerful enough that they can forego d20 and not affect sales. [/QUOTE]
