I've had various people try to persuade me that D&D is a usable RPG system, starting back in college about 20 years ago, and with the last attempt being... about 3 years ago, I think. 3rd edition, anyway.

My conclusion so far is that as skirmish systems go, it's lousy, and it simply *isn't* an RPG system. You would have to pay me very large amounts of money to convince me to play it, or any of its variants, ever again.
