I would not in any sense say that 2e facilitates Story Now (and in fact that 2e campaign was my attempt to construct an all-pervasive meta-plot, although it was designed so the PCs were the ones who got to decide which way things went, assuming they cared to do so). I guess at least the XP system was helpful to a degree. Still, the player of the paladin got to deal with his character's angst at his family's bad reputation, and pine after the girl he wasn't supposed to be able to have (many shenanigans). Summer Twilight the Druidess had lots of fun due to her determination to prove that being bossed around by men was BS (male druids that is, who naturally were incensed that she thought she could become an Initiate of the 5th Circle or something like that, now there's a new order of druids, and Kinergh Druidism is way messed up). I can't actually dredge up much about the other PCs off the top of my head, lol. Still, at least one could say that even 2e's somewhat more elaborate mechanics (for classic D&D) mostly got out of the way. I think we skipped the whole NWP/Specialization thing, being that we were basically playing "updated 1e", lol.</p></blockquote><p></p>
