I fell out of D&D and went to ICE (Iron Crown Enterpries) Middle Earth based system. Everything was based upon a centile system instead of having a bag of 50 different dice. It had criticals, specific wounds, fatigue, 10 times more skills and depth... and being Middle Earth... it had Moria. Its a ballsy theiving run to go into there.
Our Gm revised and revisited the Dungeon Explorer game rules which came before D&D. The rules have changed a lot!
It's all D6 now
Armour doesn't stop you from being hit...it takes damage before you do.
Magic is an energy pool that you dip into to cast spells...no memorizing/ forgetting upon casting (if I want to cast fireball 4 times in a row..I can)
You can vary spells by strength by deciding how many die you want in it. (Max# = 1/2 spell level).
New spells can be variations on known spells...providing you can convince the GM that it should work.
Luck points! - OMG, I can't say how many times my characters have been saved that way. (quick re-rolls or knocking die off of a roll)
etc etc...barely recognizeable...but fuck does it run smoothly.
