While ago I made characters for my Spelljammer comic/graphic novel and gave them 3.5 ed stats. So, I want to update them to 4th ed.
WILDSPACE - Colour Sargeant Oakbrow
as example
4th ed is of course, different, and we don't have all the classes/races etc as yet, I particularly dislike a lack of nice framework for making Experts conversion, as in my games, they are a common class for PCs to have, as well as NPCs.
maybe just give them d6 hp, 6 skills, bonus of +2 to skilll checks as their "thing"? multiclass experts get an extra 2 skills?
For example, the first mate of a ship does not have to be a brilliant fighter, jeesh, but, a decent combatant (*) with skills is far more likely and useful, say a 4th fighter/4th expert (same for many military officers, it's their strategic skills that are vital, not combat ones).
(*) decent as in, an ok fighter for the role' he has, the first mate on a Spelljammer ship is gonna be one tough SOB, compared to the average Joe!
Likewise, levels seem a bit different. If a character is lvl 13 in 3.,5, should he stay that in 4th? Think they feel a bit different, maybe need extra level or 2 in 4th ed?
