[QUOTE="Mike Myler, post: 8229309, member: 6726030"] It [I][B]is[/B][/I] cool, I assure you. The playtest games were pretty incredible! $10 for the UK and $16 for Europe in general (which is, I think, still cheaper than the core 5E books?) 1) That's not OGL. 2) You'll find some similar mechanics in the epic feats. 3) I wanted more depth than "here's a thing for ya". There's more support coming too (epic archetype features for all the 5E archetypes, OGL or not, will be going up on [URL="http://www.epic5e.com"]www.epic5e.com[/URL] over the next month) but as mentioned above I wanted this to be an agile tool for Gamemasters. So the book is the middle ground, I guess, and then the website will get my overzealous bits. :3 I haven't read the other epic rules supplements for 5E, but I know 2CGaming has a bunch!
