Using Star Wars Saga Edition to modify D&D

As should be clear by now, I’m really digging on Star Wars Saga Edition. A lot of the rules changes are really slick, and I think that D&D would benefit from them. Some people are saying that Saga Edition is the herald of 4th Edition D&D, and that a lot of the rules changes are indicative of what’s going to be in that game. If that’s the case, then it’s going to be very, very good. However, I can’t wait that long to start using these rules in D&D. The problem is, I don’t really have the time or inclination to rework the whole system, and there are quite a few supplements that I’d like to be able to use after modifying the system. So, I’ve created a short, three-page document presenting some rules modifications for D&D, strongly influenced by Saga Edition. I’ve left a lot of stuff alone; skills, feats, classes (for the most part) are pretty much the same. What I’ve changed are broadly applicable rules rather than specific ones. Anyway, enjoy.

Hey hi,
Thanks for that groundwork, I’ve been thinking the same. Actually 4th came out and quite a dissapointment as it turns out, for my liking anyway. I just recently discovered Starwars Saga Edition and am amazed by the system, it’s really slick. So if we can have a working adaptation for D&D that’s awesome because Pathfinder is not all I hoped it would be.
Anyways, thanks for thinking the same think as me a couple of years ahead of me. I’ll proceed to look up your document!
Regards,
Alex
