It would be particularly suited to certain types of game, but it would lack some of the characteristic features of D&D. There's no objective way to say what is or is not D&D, but I think Mike Mearls was right when he said something like "D&D is what the community thinks it is and expects it to be" (heavily paraphrasing but I think that is about the gist of it). I think a non-leveled 'D&D' would probably be at least out there on the fringe of what people would label as being D&D. Anyway, I think people should be encouraged to experiment, so if catastrophic wants to put together a homebrew like that I think that would be cool. I've toyed with doing it myself a few times. Just not really sure who would be interested, given that there are already a TON of good FRPGs out there with SW and HW/Q, and WHFRPG and a number of other pretty well supported games it seems unlikely the work would garner much notice.</blockquote>
