I'll give half credit.Action points/fate points - In the PHB as inspiration. full creditVariant XP rules - in the modules but not really in the books. quarter credit as it's there but only sorta.Firearms - in the DMG. full creditMass combat - not anywhere but definitely promised as one of the first free add ons. half credit.Speeding battles - sort of in the DMG but I don't find it very thorough. half creditSea battles - None. zero credit.Realm management and strongholds - It's sort of there in the DMG but barely. Quarter credit.Finding reagents for magical items - not that I saw. zero credit.Critical hit and critical failure tables - no (thank god). zero creditArmor as damage reduction and hit location tables - no (thank god) but we do have a feat that does DR and some armor can grant resistance. quarter credit.Lingering wounds - in the DMG. full creditAlternative magic systems - in the DMG. full credit.Horror and Sanity - in the DMG along with Honor. full credit.Let's see how we did. 17 points maximum and I count 10.25 for a 60% completion. And considering the referenced article outright says the list is probably too long, 60% of a wish list isn't too bad 18 months before publication.</blockquote>
