Would you be interested in such a product for 3.x?
You can read more about it here: montecook.livejournal.com
and here: ezboard.com/fokayyourturn
Monte might publish it.
I'm listening.
I'm interested in how many people are actually interested in this, because it would be a significant amount of work on my part to put it together as a product.
IMPORTANT: The POLL on OYT.
Thanks to Jaws for the post's template!
Not really. I mean I love some of the stuff that Monte Cook has produced in the past--but I just don't see a rehash of the D&D magic system as something I would pay for. I can make a magic system. Were I to drag the Great Old Master out of retirement to do something it'd be more in the way of a monster manual or another campaign setting.
Honestly I think magic systems have been flogged to death. When new ones (like Tome of Magic or Incarnum) come out that are good enough to create a whole new KIND of magic, I love them--but so often it's like: "Hey this time let's do magic with tokens!!"
Not the kind of thing that gets me excited.
I couldn't see it spelled out anywhere whether such a product would be only available as a pdf--in which case, as much as I love Monte, I wouldn't be interested--or in print form as well.
I'm also not sure about the subject matter. 4th edition will have a 20-level spell system, and if I ever go that route, I suppose at that point it would be interesting to compare them. But my gut reaction is that I don't want a 20-level spell system for 3rd edition D&D. It's a bit too radically different. Though I don't doubt it would be done intelligently, and be cool to boot...
