Message: <blockquote data-quote="Reaper Steve" data-source="post: 3469796" data-attributes="member: 51528">I like everything advertised about SWSE so far and would love to see it as the basis for 4e.A few minor points:1. I am a huge fan of the new skill system. After some thought (mainly because I can't think of a better alternative) I can even accept Sense Motive as part of Perception. (SM is too narrow to stand alone and it doesn't fit under any other broad catergory, so Perception is it.)2. I've never liked hit points, but now that attack, defense, and damage, scale with level, they suddenly make more sense.  I like the condition track, but it looks like Threshold may be a little high... characters will run out of HP before they progress through all the conditions.3. I love how defense goes up with level, but I don't like the SWSE armor rules. I understand the design from a SW flavor perspective, but that won't fit w/ D&D. For D&D, I think that armor should provide DR, with the offset being a penalty to Defense, attack, and physical skills.4. I agree. I made a houserule like this a while back. All characters and monsters get a racial hit die before any levels. For humans, that was a d8. So, a first level human character got 8+Con and max class hit die + Con.I've already decided that my next D&D game will be a version of SWSE as opposed to 3.5</blockquote>
