This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

So there you go. After a 20 minute initial investment on a modestly complicated monster, it takes about 7 minutes to generate 3 different stat blacks for three different levels of encounter... And that includes the time I took yelling at my kids to get ready for bed.

:D

Thanks for that, Cyclotron. :)

I can't wait to get the rule book and learn the nuts and bolts of it, but from what I see so far I like it a lot.

Be aware that SC 2.0 is OGL...  Many of the rules are different enough from standard D20 that a lot of modifications to those NPC rules would have to be made before you could strictly use them with D&D and the like.  The basic concept is sound, however, and it would really streamline DM preparation time, if you could adapt them.

Also, take a good look through a copy of SC 2.0 before you decide to buy it.  It's not a rulebook for everyone...  It's a very dense rulebook, and it's a little bit expensive, if you pay full price.

That said, in my very personal opinion, it's one of the best RPG rulebooks that's come out in a very long time and I have had no regrets having spent $40 for it.
