As is probably obvious, I am a D20 system fan. However, I was not an old style D&D fan. It's the first RPG I cut my teeth on, but I was playing it when D&D was THE role playing game on the market. I outgrew it when DragonQuest[SPI], RuneQuest and Traveller came along.
The D20 system allows one to generate any type of PC one can concieve of. Skills didn't exist in D&D1e. D20 relies on them. Feats are an huge addition. The combat system is almost unrecognizable compared to D&D1e. D20 D&D is a COMPLETELY different game than D&D1e.
I see a lot of people saying they think Traveller will become D&D in Space because of the use of the D20 system. Nothing could be further from the truth. D20 D&D is so different in it's present form than any of it's previous versions that I think it's fair to say that D&D3e isn't even "D&D" anymore.
Traveller will work in D20, and it will remain faithful to it roots. The D20 system really is solid and will allow Traveller to shine.
