[QUOTE="Zardnaar, post: 9568645, member: 6716779"] It's right there look at the powers. Reread the 4E phb not to long ago. The level 29 powers are similar in power to 5th level 5E spells. The cantrip only deal 2 dice of damage. Comparatively it's level 10 or so in 5E terms. With more HP. Pro 4E poster earlier said there's 3000 odd powers. I suspect why you haven't seen a 4E clone is it's to much work to write it. If it makes you feel better I have said D&Ds probably better off as a 10 level game. Hell 13th Age did that. 4E going to 30 would be level 15. That's not a shot at 4E more high level games in general. You bloat the power level via higher level spells or the HP slowing things down (4E). If you personally had to write a game what's easier? 5, 10, 14 or 30 levels? My personal D&D I've only done 5 levels on 8 classes. Once I'm happy with that I'll add the next 5 levels. It's basic logistics when you write your own. One universal with a 4E clone not many are willing to write it. It's a very odd comparison to OSR stuff where we wing it all the time. [/QUOTE]
