[QUOTE="Campbell, post: 7737332, member: 16586"] I love 4th Edition and I am completely cold to 13th Age. Nothing else quite feels like 4th Edition to me. It had an attitude. There was this visceral violent core running throughout the game - in its artwork, themes, lore and mechanics. It portrays a world where Civilization has always been a thin veneer painted over our violence. It has always been at conflict since the gods overthrew their Primordial creators. The Dawn War is writ large, but so are the fall of Nerath, Arkhosia, and Bael Turath. This expands into mechanics that vividly portray that fighter who draws that line in the sand no one will be allowed to cross or the dogged and relentless pursuit of an avenger. The center piece of those mechanics is building on the heroic rally and making it front and center to the combat narrative. This is not me crapping on 13th Age. It's a fine game, but it contains nothing of the spirit of 4th Edition. [/QUOTE]
