[QUOTE="Plane Sailing, post: 3024329, member: 114"] I'll try to offer some insight, in case it helps. To people who like True20, the three generic classes: (a) don't have an implied setting built in, so they can be used in pretty much any genre - a concept shared with the d20 modern base classes, and it would probably be quite interesting to do 'base classes' for true20 as an alternative (if that hasn't already been tackled by someone). (b) class features are replaced by feat-per-level, which includes most standard class features anyway, thus allowing players to create highly customised characters off those base classes. A warrior with rage, increased speed, toughness and uncanny dodge vs a warrior with combat expertise, improved disarm, improved trip and two weapon fighting, say. I'm not saying this means you should automatically like it :) Hopefully just giving a bit of insight in how the True20 classes can be seen as attractive by people that do like it. Cheers [/QUOTE]
