[QUOTE="ashockney, post: 4600339, member: 1363"] Ah, memories! The gang's all here from the old 3rd Edition high level threads! Although PC's here to stop fights not start them this time. ; ) I will second the notion that 4e is at least worth a playthrough to check out the high level stuff and how it's being handled in this game differently. That's what I'm doing. Going through this thread, however, has been enlightening me to the fact that many of the things I LOVE about 4e could fairly easily be retro-fitted into 3e to make it much faster and more playable. Interesting... Kerrick, thank you for the invite to check out your web/wiki for Project Phoenix. I spent some time going over it tonight. As you know from my earlier comments, it appears we had very similar goals and that I've already spent some time accomplishing the same goals from a different direction. I'm all about saving time in my work, so if it would save you any time, I'd be happy to offer you more info on the work I've already done. Having spent some time reviewing your work, I'm still unclear as to what's changed exactly, so I'd like your thoughts on the big changes you're recommending at this point. UpperKrust, howdy mate! It's always good to post-a-logue with you. I am also intrigued at the unique approach you took to accomplish very similar goals (coming from the MM side of the equation). I'd like to see/read more about your goals in doing that work and development, to see if you were headed in the same direction as Kerrick and I. You know, it occurs to me that we may all three (along with everyone at Paizo for Pathfinder...) be trying to head in the same direction. It may be worth a dialogue to see if we could accomplish more by working together. At a minimum, I would be happy to spend some time discussing the work that's been done today in a faster format. I'd recommend Skype, and it might be fun to record for podcasting purposes. Dare I say, you may have gotten your chocolate in my peanut butter? :p Good gaming! [/QUOTE]
