[QUOTE="Hussar, post: 6404204, member: 22779"] Well, first off, no alignment system, so that's a major leg up right there. :D But, the Aspect system would fit with law vs chaos so much better than D&D. You simply choose Aspects that fit within that theme - something like, Letter of the Law or Stick It To the Man, or even something as simple as Free Spirit and you'd create a game that is inherently focused on ethics rather than morality. Also, since D&D tends to resolve a lot of issues by killing them, Fate would perhaps mechanically fit trying to act within a specific moral framework a little bit better. Put it this way. Evil is real in a D&D world. It is a force, same as gravity or heat. It can be measured and detected. Makes moral questions pretty bloody easy to answer - if I do this, will it make me evil? Yes? Well, better not do that then since being evil is a bad thing. In Fate, you would never get such easy answers. [/QUOTE]
