Ish. Going with a simplified damage system I found on the True20 forums (which are great, by the way). And maybe including Aspects from the Fate system.I find it encourages swashbuckling play (mainly by dropping iterative attacks and attacks of opportunity), player creativity (especially with regards to magic) and does away with the "Resource Management" aspect of d20 (where hit points are the primary resource that determines PC action). Some people LIKE the Resource Managment aspect of d20 so it's not for them, but for me, I love not thinking in those terms anymore.</blockquote>
