[QUOTE="Stacie GmrGrl, post: 7674178, member: 86279"] I am not advocating the idea of 'One System to Rule Them All' or to promote 'dual stat books'... not at all. My suggestion was literally this. Two different companies coming together to produce a brand new game using already established brands. A D&D Dresden Files would be a Dresden Files game in and of itself using the D&D system. A Spelljammer AGE game would be a fully set up Spelljammer game with a customized AGE system. A Eberron Savage Worlds would be a fully set up Savage Worlds Eberron game. All these ideas with their own rules sets, their own books, their own game line. Not needing any other books. If they want to somehow bring in the idea of board games and how board games do expansions... than we need more of these combinations of separate games that are in and of their own, their own rpg game. And if those separate games sell well, than do an expansion book or two. I am also saying that these different companies come together, and not work against each other with these. That a D&D Dresden Files IS both a WotC and a Evil Hat game. Not one or the other. That a Spelljammer AGE game is both a WotC game and a Green Ronin game. Yes it's actually different, and it would actually require these different companies to come together more... or, well, that's the idea. And I am not saying these are like the SRD/OGL either, because they are not. These are games that would have both companies logos on the back, not just one. Advertised as such, things like that. If something like this actually happened, it'd be pretty cool. This is how Savage Worlds Rifts is doing it. It's a Rifts game that is also a Savage Worlds game. It won't be dual stats, it won't be designed for both systems. It's literally Rifts using a different system. And it's going to be really cool. This is what we need more of in our game industry.
