Seems the only logical way - otherwise one ends up with a mess I suspect, a high level campaign is already a mess after all.<br /><br />I did like the idea of divine domains offering a set of powers (almost class like - but maybe a bit more versatile)that is found in the goldbox, but in general it's unduly complex if I remember right.Gus Lhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14872819206286105195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4143435314932633148.post-36789278976772299832016-03-21T19:11:40.886-07:002016-03-21T19:11:40.886-07:00: )

I've actually done some work in the past with both the "gold box" and the later Wrath of the Immortals (I penned a number of essays on the Olympian gods over at Vault of Pandius...though that was years ago).<br /><br />Gold was weird in a lot of ways. I have a copy back in Seattle. Maybe I'll pop it out next time I'm back home.JBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03263662621289630246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4143435314932633148.post-64780680139698281622016-03-21T16:35:02.175-07:002016-03-21T16:35:02.175-07:00You know a project I'd love to see done that m...You know a project I'd love to see done that might really appeal to your mechanics focus and rules archeology?<br /><br />Gold Box. No wait, hear me out - seriously. I mean it. Don't walk away. I swear it's not a bad idea.<br /><br />Yeah something more based on Journey to the West then The Twelve Great Olympians. Low level demi-god hijinx. An HP as Power system (maybe with SDC like god v. normal damage) for casting spells and abilities from a specific tree. Something still D20 and D&D but where the party can be a gang of random reformed demons, folk deities and newly martyred saint trying to work their way up the heavenly bureaucracy by dealing with mostly earthly problems.Gus Lhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14872819206286105195noreply@blogger.com
