Good points. I'd give them time.
There is an authoring kit that also provides access to user-built games, and I'm wondering if any of them are replicas of some older systems done as a 3rd party release. I've been toying with the idea of purchasing the authoring kit just to have access to any other systems people are coming out with. Could be worth while. |

Support for Eclipse Phase would be awesome.

Ah, I didn't even think of the publisher end. Though truth be told, I'm done with WotC. Wizards is not really on my "good companies to support" list.
Ultimately though it's just that Pathfinder suits my needs a lot better than D&D products these days, and I just don't have a reason to change to a new system when the one I have works well. Curiosity might make me look, but I doubt they'll come out with a product that'll make me spend hundreds of dollars on them again after investing so heavily in Pathfinder. If I were to make a change of my "main" gaming system, I'd probably just switch to GURPS. I love it. It's just hard to get other folks to give it a shot if they haven't before. Failing that, I'd just go back to AD&D 2e. So there are three big ones ahead of any new D&D rules system, unfortunately. Kudos to Monte Cook, though. He has a pretty clever mind, which is why I'd be curious enough to peek at what he comes up with. |

I know this is a clone... How about Castles & Crusades? I have been trying to do it on the authoring kit but I am a simple old soldier who loves to game but can't quite grasp the 'fun' parts of programming...
That is the price you pay for being one of the finest! |

I noticed some people have posted that they'd like Traveller, I am just hoping they're referring to the non-mongoose versions of it floating around. The last time Mongoose took a crack at it they put in a nice chapter of feats and no way for players to select them for their characters. That would be a major screw up on publishing and made me not want to play with their product. |

My group would like to have the Warhammer 40k RPG's (Dark Heresy, Rogue Trader, Deathwatch, Black Crusade) represented.

I'm coming in late to this party, but I'd like to throw my chips into the pot, if I could, with the following suggestions:
Cyberpunk 2020 Mekton Z Fuzion I say this not only as a writer for these three products (Hi!), but as someone who has heard many times at conventions the phrase "Man, I wish I had a decent character builder for this game." Authoring kit is an answer, sure, but speaking as someone who would love to do more small-press work with these games (I also run Atomic Rocket Games, but that doesn't mean much since my day job bit me on the ass), I'd be more than happy to pitch the idea of Hero Lab at R. Talsorian's honcho. |
