It is expanding in a similar way to the d20 system.  (Not so much like D&D as much as being like "d20")  In fact I am planning on using SW to run the Witchfire Trilogy and the Freeport Trilogy (& Adventures in Freeport.)The game provides the  experience awards for resolving the problem, fulfilling the mission, etc. rather than for everything you kill,  SO it doesn't encourage you to "Diablo your way through" the way D&D does.  (And I do enjoy kick in the door most of the time, it is just nice to play something else sometimes.)So anyhow...Tell me more about Earthdawn?</blockquote>
