On first blush, LEGEND looks really awesome.

I've done a skim of the system, the main thread (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=223875), and some random other info on it. So I am sure that this question is answered somewhere, I just haven't seen it.

How compatible is LEGEND with D&D 3.5 monsters, books, items, adventures, etc.?

i.e. can I use modules and such from 3.5 in LEGEND, or is it its own stand-alone game that requires rework of all the encounters, etc.?

The more compatible it is, the easier time I would have for my group to switch over from 3.5/Pathfinder.

It's not directly compatible - even though Legend has the same kinds of numbers, the numbers are all differently balanced (or rather, actually balanced). You'd have to convert things back and forth. If you like, you could try running a 3.5 monster against a Legend party just to see what happens, but the system wasn't designed to be played that way.
