[QUOTE="doghead, post: 1638154, member: 8243"] My brain is dead and I can't seem to put my thoughts in order. Humm. But here goes - I suspect that dividing the feats into combat and non-combat could be problematic in cases (but I can't think of one at the mo'). Instinctively, the entry verses progression seems easy enough to handle. Same with the core vs class distinction. Combat vs non combat seems to add a dimension that could be tricky. Or perhaps just unnecessary. Its is also building in the assumption that non combat feats are worth less than combats ones. Maybe its true. I'm wary of going the way of skill trees. Its kind of taking a step back towards preset paths. And it would involve more work. Some more examples would help sort out my thoughts a bit I think. I have an old version of Claris Works 3.0 which has a spreadsheet function. In the save box it offers MS Excel 3.0 or 4.0 as file type options. So maybe it has translators for those files types. It also offers ASCII Text, DBF, DYF and SYLK, but I have no idea what the last three are. the tired dog [/QUOTE]
