[QUOTE="TheAuldGrump, post: 3004175, member: 6957"] And thanks in turn for your own. :p I actually [i]like[/i] the NG version of Wilderlands, and find this development rather more than annoying. While I may never run a campaign with the setting I do own it, and do not feel that I have wasted my money. While I do not yet own City State I also intend to get that when I can, which may well result in my running short campaigns in the setting. Conversion from D20 to C&C is actually easier than the reverse - one is removing information (largely skills) while the other is reengineering the NPCs and monsters. The lack of a true skill system is my greatest problem with C&C, and why, after looking at the book at the store I put it back on the shelf - I do not feel enough of an urge to go back to old school character generation. I like having skills, and do not like using a cookie cutter to create my characters or NPCs. So, I will not be purchasing this new version of an existing setting. Is that more constructive and insightful? The Auld Grump [/QUOTE]
