Aberrations are terrible at engaging in witty banter mid-duel. Demons decline to show up at neutral occasions like a grand ball and sneer at the PCs over their wineglasses. (Devils might, on the other hand.) Ravening zombie hordes don't employ courtesans in their intrigues. And it's a rare apocalyptic fire elemental that will attempt to woo and then abandon your chaste cousin solely to anger you. One of the grand set pieces of a swashbuckling game is the civilized but malicious enemy.I figure there are at least two basic problems that would necessitate solving (and they could be solved, though it would take careful consideration). The first would be making sure that whatever epic conflict is affecting the entire world, it has applications that are in-genre for other games that they affect. The second would be figuring out ways that the lower-level games could either end their engagement early (if they don't care for the crossover material) or extend it past the point at which the epic-level characters have "fixed" the problem (if they like it and don't want it to stop). These are both pretty tricky, because optimally each campaign is designed for the needs of the group. An epic fallout event is technically designing one campaign for the needs of the other, which is pretty great for the epic game that's taking precedence, but not necessarily for the others.</blockquote>
