[QUOTE="Jeff Carlsen, post: 5435260, member: 61749"] The very idea of this makes me happy. Here are a few of my opinions on what is needed: 1. Everything included in the box. Dice, Pencil, Character Sheet, a book with player and gamemaster information, and an adventure. Tokens and maps would be nice if possible. 2. Four or five races, and the same number of classes. 3. Use either the purchase system or a pre-set array for ability scores. 4. Give us the first 10 levels of each class. Reduce the numbers of class options where choices need to be made, but don't eliminate them entirely. Fewer domains, Rogue talents, and the like. 5. Reduce the number of spells dramatically. Keep to some basic themes, and leave out summoning and polymorph. 6. Remove Spell Resistance. It's always been a little awkward. 7. Skills can be left alone. 8. Reduce the number of feats by half. The characters only reach level 10 as it is. 9. Remove magic item crafting. 10. Reduce the number of magic items to the basics. Named items are the norm. 11. Reduce the number of modifier types. 12. Leave combat how it is. 13. Include the entire Gamemastering chapter. [/QUOTE]
