Not much in the way of discussion goes on at the moment here. We are all
mostly waiting for the D20 Document to be released.
However, I have set up a list at Phoenyx that is dedicated to just such a
thing. Everyone likes different "feel" to the rules depending on what genre
you play. We are making plug in modules that will allow you to play
different genres like you feel they should be played.
If you are interested in the project, go ahead and send an email to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject and body of the message are discarded, and can
be left blank if desired.
Currently we are discussing a more "lethal" Hit point system and a leveled
wound system.
If you want to take a look at the archive, you can go to :

Have Fun,
Darren
