I think a traditional fantasy RPG is pretty much dead in the water to take any significant share away from D&D.You would have to appeal to a new group of potential players and not take existing ones. Frankly there are so many fantasy RPGs out there, if they havent taken a chunk of the market, then that avenue is probably not going to work.A simple question, what could you really do with a trad fantasy RPG that would make it different enough to WOW people but not so different that it is not still traditional. These are almost competing claims.I think you would have to appeal to some group that doesnt play but is would be open to playing (and I think WW took that crowd in the 90s). And then you would have to make it pretty nontraditional (if it was really traditional then these people would probably already be playing one of the traditional games).</blockquote>
