[QUOTE="Dire Bare, post: 7618768, member: 18182"] The prior game was built on the Spycraft engine, which itself was built on D&D 3E. Owned a few of the books, but never played it. I disagree that D&D 5E is a bad fit. The main reason is accessibility, more folks are likely to try and play the game if they already know the rules. But, the main characters of the movie and TV show can definitely be seen as archetypes or classes. Jack - Soldier Teal'c - Warrior Daniel & Samantha - Scientist I'm willing to wait and see before passing judgement on the game. If it lives up to it's promise, building a sci-fantasy game on top of the D&D 5E engine, I will be excited to pick it up! My worries are: There is no current movie or TV show to drive interest in the game, this could weaken sales and later support. This is Wyvern's game's first RPG (I believe), they have no track record. Will the license include digital support, will we get ebooks? The main reason I haven't gotten into FFG's Star Wars game is that there are no (legal) ebooks, and my bookshelves are full. [/QUOTE]
