[QUOTE="arscott, post: 2963546, member: 17969"] Well, if C&C is so hard to understand, then it's not really rules light, is it? When I see people essentially saying "All you need to do to run a Sci-Fi C&C campaign is rewrite the classes and come up with new equipment", you'll forgive me if I'm a bit sceptical of C&C's flexibility. Especially since without feats and skills, Classes and Equipment are pretty much all that define a C&C character. A few threads over, people are talking about how they added feats back to C&C. The upcoming Castle Keepers guide is adding in skills. That strikes me odd for a system whose primary accomplishment was replacing them with ability checks. I'm quickly coming to the conclusion that removing the rules from a game doesn't make it 'rules-lite' any more that removing the gastank of a car makes it fuel efficient. Look, we all have our pet systems. But I'm willing to admit that mine (d20 modern) is just too rules-heavy to fit with what the OP is looking for. Perhaps you should stop evangelizing and do the same. [/QUOTE]
