[QUOTE="Azzy, post: 8058634, member: 6563"] All of these are great ideas. I'd also add: [LIST] [*]More options for tactical combat. While it's not something that I personally care about, it's something that's been brought up time and again and deserves being addressed for those that want it. [*]Range bands and other TotM-enhancing elements (like [URL='https://www.enworld.org/threads/what-features-should-a-advanced-5e-have.673832/post-8058250']Haldrik's post[/URL], or SARN-FU). [*]Abstracted mass combat (like BECMI's Warmachine rules). [*]Domain rules (again, like in BECMI). [*]Codified skill challenge rules (like 4e). [*]A more detailed skill system with more skills and a built-in way to gain/improve skills/languages/tools as you level (like AD&D's NWP). It needs to keep the standard skill roll mechanic of 5e and fit with 5e's bounded accuray, however. [*]More weapons, armor, equipment (especially those of different cultures where weapon equivalency doesn't work). [*]If you really want to go nuts, a more detailed [I]Player's Option: Skills and Powers[/I]-style class and race customization that allows you you to modify or build classes. I'm sure that isn't a realistic request, though. [*]More tools for the exploration and social pillars. [*]AD&D-style multiclassing/4e gestalt classes. [*]Leveling past 20th level up to 30th level (like in 2e and 4e). [*]More detailed magic item creation and magic item economy. [*]Rules for hirelings and henchmen. [*]Non-magic item crafting. [*]Better morale rules. [*]Anything else that helps emulate an earlier edition's styles of play better. [/LIST] Of course these would need to be a-la-carte (especially as some of them serve contradictory purposes). I wish you the best of luck on this project, Morrus. It looks like it could easily get out of hand. [/QUOTE]
