[QUOTE="Imaro, post: 3289377, member: 48965"] Like how you totally avoided my question. It's not a tool box, GURPS and HERO and BESM are tool box games, no setting assumptions whatsoever. D&D has explicit assumptions( common magic items, certain amount of treasure, niche protection etc.) which in turn define D&D more as a genre onto itself than a generic toolbox. I have no problem with that, what I'm asking are what rules(included in 3.5 are necessary for emulation of D&D's genre and which are a.) not necessary, can easily be figured out by using the base mechanic and DC's b.) not necessary, because they don't really accomplish their intended purpose c.) not necessary, because they don't work in a logical manner(I mean D&D logic) d.) not necessary, because they bog down play for no appreciable net gain to fun Kensanata thanks for answering, and by the way already downloaded Microlite, me and a few co-workers play in a bar after work on a couple of days out the week its easy, simple and fun. Basic necessary rules and nothing else. This type of thinking is why I find myself playing less and less D&D and more C&C. [/QUOTE]
