[QUOTE="delericho, post: 3475843, member: 22424"] Highly unlikely. Classes and levels are two of the greatest strengths of D&D. Removing either would be an absolute disaster. Levels provide a nice easy way to motivate players - "I want to get to 20th level!" Classes provide a really easy way to explain the types of characters that are out there - "Gandalf's the Wizard, Aragorn's the Ranger..." Of course, neither is the only way to do these things, and neither is for everyone... but if you remove them (from the core RAW), I'm not sure it's still D&D. Interesting assertion. So, you could have two modules, one featuring blind kobolds and the other featuring a Balor, both for the same party? No, you would need some measure of group power level, and then you haven't gotten rid of the niches, you've just changed the scale. [/QUOTE]
