The original couple editions of Blood and Fists were for the d20 Modern roleplaying game (mainly). A while back, Chuck learned of the glorious True20 system and began writing/converting for it. Among other things, he brought over his (much improved, in my opinion) Blood and Fists. It is both simple and elegant, and until two days ago I had not heard a bad word spoken of it.

His True 20 stuff is all quite good. Legends of Excalibur is spot on, and Darwin's World and Wild West are at least as good as True20 as they were under any other system.

The system is most awesome, accommodating Star Wars, Modern action, Fantasy, and DinnoPirate hybrids that have never been seen before with equal ease. I'm a big fan.

Iron Heroes. It's that cool.
