[QUOTE="Hunter In Darkness, post: 4504304, member: 44298"] To me you make the rules fit the setting not the setting fit the rules. I see no reson why you could not play Dark sun with 4e rules under a few changes So you make it a setting book not a source book New classes...Gladiator , and psion should be here *CLass should be adapted, No paladins, clerics need a rewrite,warlord should fit fine however, preservers and defilers need defined warlocks may be reword as defiler or taken out New races. Half giant, thri-keen,aacorca, and partrrens [I mangled them names] A chapter on fitting races into athas. The races should not be the standard D&D races for the most part. elves and drawves have diff mechanics and should not be PHB clones. There is no place for the eldrin the athas elf makes them needless. * Dragon born I would not include the setting has dray , shoehorning dragon born in is a mistake * Tiflings do not fit the setting I see no need for them as well.[If a DM wanted the races that could be done as a mutation, but They do not need to be in the book as it takes away from the fill] * Less magic, I mean alot less. * More psionic's[takes place of magic] *rules for non metal weapons and armor * Rules for dieing from heat, sand etra. * DO NOT USE THE DEFALT COSMOLOGY There is more but thats off the top of my head, sorry for the name mangling am in a hurry [/QUOTE]
