[QUOTE="jdrakeh, post: 2731718, member: 13892"] Some of it. I was fairly impressed with D6 Fantasy as a standalone fantasy rule set (there's a bestiary for it, as well). I picked it up for use with The World of Aden. D6 Adventure I could take or leave, and have only skimmed through briefly. D6 Space is pretty much D6 Star Wars with the serial numbers filed off (so I like it, too). Honestly, though - when it comes to utility and d6 pool systems, the one found in [url=http://www.pen-paper.net/rpgdb.php?op=showbook&bookid=1402][b][i]Age of Empire[/i][/b][/url] pleases me the most. I've used AoE for everything from its default Victorian Age adventure setting (e.g., The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen) to high fantasy (e.g., D&D). So... even if you grab a copy of D6 Fantasy and Space, try to land a copy of AoE, as well. [Note: You still have to count a lot of dice in D6, but it's simple if you count in increments of ten.
