[QUOTE="Kanegrundar, post: 1958890, member: 3913"] That's the reason why I think a 4th edition within the next year or two would extremely unpopular decision. There's nothing overly wrong with 3.5. Sure there are some things that could use tweaking, like the Turn Undead rules, but the need to start over from scratch...no way. I know a lot of people are going to say that they're not going to change over to the new edition will end up doing just that. However, I'm not so certain that i will jump right on the 4th edition bandwagon. 1: I agree that it will likely not be compatible with 3.5. 2: Compared to 2E, I have a LOT more material for 3.5. Switching over to a new system and invalidating most if not all of my current books, is not very attractive to me. 3: I'll likely be married by next year (if some of the eariler predictions of when 4E will come out come true). That means a LOT less money for a whole new game. That'll be compounded even further if I start a family then also. Now, if (and that's a BIG if) 4E ends up being that much of an improvement over 3.5...I'll do a lot of book selling to be able to afford a new edition. Like I said, it's going to have to be a BIG improvement. Otherwise, I'll stick with 3.5, and then covert what little bit of new material from 4E back to 3E. Kane [/QUOTE]
