[QUOTE="Desdichado, post: 695403, member: 2205"] Not just refined skills, refined [i]everything.[/i] A much richer (although not necessarily larger) selection of feats, for instance. Much clearer combat discussion and explanation. Cleaned up monster rules, with actual monster creation rules incorporated into the book. Most of these are changes that we already [i]know[/i] are making it into the revisions. The classes being overly generic is certainly a matter of opinion that is -- at best -- controversial (I love 'em, for instance), although I'd agree that the non-lethal damage is a poor substitute for subdual damage, and that seems to have been poorly recieved as well. Still, with the exception of that, d20 Modern is, IMO, a much better game than D&D. It plays the same way, yet takes much less space to explain, is more widely applicable to a broad base of possible settings, and it actually gives you new stuff that D&D, for all it's three books, doesn't do at this point.
