[QUOTE="Lanefan, post: 6222998, member: 29398"] Various things I'd like to see brought back... - re-rolled initiatives each round using something smaller than a d20 - possibility of simultaneous actions/initiatives rather than strictly turn-based - casting times for spells, if you start a 3-segment spell on initiative 5 you'll resolve on init. 2 - no such thing as "combat casting", you get hit or disturbed while casting and the spell's lost, period - risk in casting - lightning bolts bounce off walls, fireballs expand to fill a volume, spells like "fly" have random durations, etc. - d% resurrection and system shock survival rolls straight from 1e - henches, hirelings, and associate adventurers as a relatively common part of an adventuring group - morale rules (though I find this pretty easy to wing) - facing - a shield only protects your front and off-hand side - cursed magic items (though also easy to wing) - different advancement tables for different classes - training rules where you don't get the full benefit of gaining a level until you spend some time in town and train into it - much slower natural healing - an overnight rest gets you back a few h.p. only - stat-based bonuses only at the ends of the bell curve - anything between about 7-14 should be +0 - rules or guidelines for followers, castles, temples, etc. at whatever point 5e decides "name level" will be - "looser" math behind the system Lan-"the above is but the tip of an iceberg"-efan [/QUOTE]
