[QUOTE="Snarf Zagyg, post: 8996422, member: 7023840"] In my preferred world, the new DMG would have even more variant rules, and even more information on how to fine-tune and change rules. That said, I wouldn't put it in a sidebar. Instead, I would put them together in clusters. The current DMG has a lot of good ideas for variant rules, but they are hard to find and scattered throughout the book. Why not put variant rules in thematic clusters- Running a more "traditional" OSR low-magic game. Running a high-magic and high fantasy heroic game. Running games with more player control of the narrative. Running games with themes (horror, science fiction, comedy, whatever). Running games with a tactical and combat focus. Put together rules variants in thematic clusters and people are more likely to view them holistically, while still being able to pick and choose among them. [/QUOTE]
