[QUOTE="Aldarc, post: 7733092, member: 5142"] Green Ronin should consider a better division of labor for their projects. Green Ronin may be a small-medium-ish company, but there are many such tabletop RPG companies in similar size situations that are pumping out a fairly regular stream of product support. Unfortunately, I think that ship has already sailed, so I am not sure how much fan or 3pp support such a hypothetical AGE-OGL would see. Many people have moved on. A lot of the buzz around the AGE system is fairly dead. I don't even think that the AGE system is really cutting it anymore. Its basic roll 3d6 stunt system is pretty solid. Its supporting framework, however, is not, which has become increasingly obvious with time. The system's problems are highly evident in the numerous threads on the Green Ronin forum dedicated to houseruling the AGE system just so that its head can properly stay afloat above water, espeically post-5th level. At this point, I think that the AGE System needs a major overhaul so that there is a clear and consistent vision for its various interlocking parts across all levels. (It's clearly a system designed in piece-mail chunks and not as a whole.) I'm partially of the opinion that AGE should either condense its levels to 10 (e.g., 13th Age, Shadow of the Demon Lord) or go level-less, especially due to its 3d6 bellcurve. [/QUOTE]
