Merging the editions ...

[mal]

So having recently acquired Stormbringer 3e and Elric, it’s clear to me I generally like 3e better (as I’m not really a fan of magic for all in the stormbringer universe). I do like Elrics char gen a bit more. I’m thinking of merging the 2 (and I generally like higher powered characters for my players). 
My current plan is to use the bones of the stormbringer char gen but change characteristic generation to 2d6+6 with characters choosing where to place the numbers, choosing nationality and class, plus adding the step in Elric where you choose your approach and add 20 to 13 skills. While leaving most everything else the same. 
thoughts?

I like the freeform professions aproaching, 250 points to 400 points based on your campaign level or a quick way like Magic world rule of +60 to one skill, +40 to three skills, +20 to four skills.

Just a question, are you replacing the normal Stormbringer previous experience with the Elric approach of adding 20% to thirteen skills, or combining the two? 

If the latter then it seems like you want to run SB3 but with slightly better attributes and skills. In that case you are heading in the direction of first edition Strombringer.

Yes combining them ..

. I haVe both stormbringer 1 and stormbringer broken into 3 books it looks to me like chargen are the same in both versions... how would doing this be more like 1e.?
