Aha, someone who realizes they can't gauge game rules at a glance better than massed playtesters and professional game designers. Amazing how many messageboard posters think they can.



Typically I have found when people come up with alternate rules, it usually is not much better than the original rule... it just makes that person feel better and rids them of frustration. I have never really changed rules, just systems. IF there was a rule I didn't like I never changed it, just eliminated or ignored it.

I have never really changed many D&D rulings unless I could find no particular way to ignore or replace it. Even then I only really consider changing it if that ruling is going to cause more than one or two problems during game play, otherwise I just leave it as is.

In response to the prestige classes that are to powerful. I heard that the Spirit Warrior (Basically makes you a DBZ character ) is quite powerful.

I stumbled across the Orc Grunt and he is quite sweet.

If you want a list of new classes click on the link www.community3e.com That is where I get them.

I think they also offer some exciting 3e Netbook project as well too. I remember reading through the NetBook on Time. It was a great addition piece to the accessory Chronomancy for AD&D.
