Anaximander Posted August 29, 2015 Report Share Posted August 29, 2015 I am invested in the 6th edition system, but there are some 5th edition supplements that look interesting to me. If I were to purchase some of the 5th edition stuff (or decide to invest in both systems), how easy is it to convert back and forth between the two systems?

IndianaJoe3 Posted August 29, 2015 Report Share Posted August 29, 2015 It's not that hard. I think there's a 5e->6e guide in the Downloads section. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigdamnhero Posted September 5, 2015 Report Share Posted September 5, 2015 I frequently use 5ed NPCs in 6ed games without even bothering to formally convert them. My players have never noticed. The only time it becomes an issue for me is if someone tries to Drain/Dispel/Aid/etc a power whose cost changed significantly in 6ed, but even there a quick swag is usually sufficient.

Lucius Posted September 6, 2015 Report Share Posted September 6, 2015 A lot of the differences have more to do with how much things cost or what they are called, than with how they work. Lucius Alexander 1st edition palindromedary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopher R Taylor Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 Yeah there are very few instances where you'll need to change anything from 5th to 6th unless you're terribly worried about the math. Double inches of movement/reach etc into meters, and you're good to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
