    • In 4e, attributes are priced more consistently than 3e. DX and IQ are always 20 points to upgrade by 1, and ST and HT are always 10.

    • 4e doesn't have any kind of Random Characters.

    • In 4e, HP is based on ST and FP is based on HT, not the other way around.

    • In 4e, psionics is not skill-based and is relatively simpler.

    • 4e doesn't have language skills; instead, languages are separate, and there are four levels (None, Broken, Accented, Native) rather than the full 3d range.

    • 4e Tech Levels are more consolidated and some things are different. As an example, modern day is TL8 (the digital age), rather than TL7.

    • 4e has more damage types than 3e.

    • Mental disadvantages in 4e use a 'self-control roll' instead of a Will roll.

    Right in the book, there's a starter solo adventure called "All In A Night's Work". For a whole table, I would recommend converting free oneshot 4e adventures like the other commenter.

  • This meme uses the "Anime Girl Hiding From Terminator" template, in mexico filter, where the text 'I, who can't even write 100 spells for my TTRPG' is layered over the anime girl, and 'Rolemaster casually having 2000 spells in 162 spell lists and 15 magic classes' in the Terminator, which is referring to the quantity of spells in the Rolemaster RPG's Spell Law book, one of the fundamental books alongside Character Law & Campaign Law, and Arms Law & Claw Law. And yes, before you say it, I know they're called professions, not classes.

    If you want deeper rules for things, PF2e is good. If you want simpler and more story-focused rules, picking up Index Card RPG or Knave might be good.

    By 'logographic languages', i mean ones where words are represented through unique symbols, such as Chinese.

    For me at least, it's TL7. I just love that Space Race vibe.
