I would embrace any ruleset, as long as I can be able to set options for it. But, yeah, allow me to be able to turn on, or turn off, the different aspects of your system that I might need or might not need. A visual representation of a dice roll would be good, too, to allow. I would request mainly that you keep it simple and keep the ability to customize. There's really a lot of complexity in determining what to keep and most of these things won't be understood by players who aren't familiar with any edition of D&D. For example, things like the gelatinous cube's reach can be sacrificed and concepts like moving twenty five feet a turn. Even if we want to recreate as much of the D&D experience as possible, it's still really an overwhelmingly demanding task to consider applying the bulk of the rules. So, it's usually better for the player to streamline the combat system, as best as possible. Knights of the Old Republic kept the rules in the background, but you still felt able to build an all-around awesome party and go through challenging battles where each didn't require two or three hours of combat. I'm a believer in respecting a medium's differences. Having a grid and everything would be great, but, it could easily become too cumbersome and difficult. In the scope of RPG Maker, it would be wise not to attempt to entirely rebuild the tabletop experience. I'm not familiar with the 5th edition and I wasn't even aware it was released, but I know that Icewind Dale used 2nd edition and that is among the best usages of D&D in a video game. I would be interested just alone in a system script for Vancian magic and dice-rolling.

Sounds like an excellent idea for expanding on the potential of VX ACE. Having players not able to exceed 20 in any stat is a breath of relief for balancing dungeons. I may even do such an adaptation but for now the default rules will be as they are. Since the ruleset is quite similar to 3rd edition, you can easily adapt it for that edition or use its features with that in mind. Note: This core mechanic adaptation will use the newest 5th edition ruleset which is something of a hybrid between AD&D 2nd edition and the d20-oriented customization of 3rd edition. How would you like to see them adapted and what other rules do you think require adaptation? Leave your comments for consideration, the project is ongoing. Since players can't move their units around a grid (yet) things like aggro and AOE effects already need to adapt. What makes or breaks D&D? What doesn't work in a battle RPG setting? What rules can be sacrificed for the betterment of the player? I'm looking for feature requests or exclusions. Twelve custom scripted default classes, each with their own role and strengths Includes animated battlers! All kinds of fantasy creatures with their own attack animations, even dragons Compatible with and including Yanfly's Engine Ace and Yami's Battle Symphony with animated battlers Roll any amount of dice with any number of sides using the roll() method (great for custom damage formulas) Critical Hit, Critical Miss, and Natural 20 systems implemented hash table functioning class system that is easily extendable for adding more classes fully customizable per class, enemy, or even skill (use dex for your weapons and int for your spells!)

THAC0 balanced chance to hit including class proficiency bonuses and ability modifiers Saving Throws and skill DC checks easily called by method from damage formulas for enemies or allies 5th edition d20 system including Advantage and Disadvantage Tabletop grid movement is still a long ways away but for now the following has been implemented: For the past month I've been fervently working on converting the standard Ace battle system into something more recognizable to D&D fans.
