[QUOTE="Scribble, post: 5810779, member: 23977"] I think this is primarily what the new system is trying to accomplish. To serve as a rules source for whatever you believe X should be. Some get bored when the rules don't in their eyes "support" the flavor of what they're describing. IE I can describe crazy actions all I want, but if I'm only rolling to hit and damage there's not really anything to it. They want the rules to indicate they move X amount, or push the guy back, or whatever... Others find that many rules to be too limiting to their imagination. They just want the to hit and damage dice rules, the rest they can do in their own heads and describe at the table. This game will try to present both schools of though with a set of rules they can use at the table together. We can (and you know we will) still argue about which way to do it is best... But at least the rules won't try to tell us, and we won't be able to point to the current edition and say SEE I'm right and you're wrong. [/QUOTE]
