And this differs from other role-playing games exactly how? :-) I've never played D&D; in fact the only published role-playing system I've ever worked in was GURPS-based (John M. Ford ran a magical 17th century campaign that eventually morphed into a space pirates type thing). And even he tried to avoid the mechanics intruding deeply. I like figuring out what one should try, and having the DM do the odds, without my having to worry about it. -- David Dyer-Bennet, dd-b at dd-b.net / New TMDA anti-spam in test John Dyer-Bennet 1915-2002 Memorial Site http://john.dyer-bennet.net Book log: http://www.dd-b.net/dd-b/Ouroboros/booknotes/ New Dragaera mailing lists, see http://dragaera.info
