Hi,
I have a largish collection of d20 supplements and now have four different ship-to-ship combat systems. I've got Seas of Blood (Mongoose), Broadsides! (Living Imagination), Swashbuckling Adventures (AEG) and now the Arms & Equipment Guide, and they'll all different.
Swashbuckling Adventures lists Broadsides, Seas of Blood and the Seafarer's Handbook on its OGL page so I guess it might be using the same ship rules as the Seafarer's Handbook which is the only one I don't have.
I'm thinking about buying Airships, but this might give me a different system again.
So... if you've used any of these, which one plays best and why?
And... do you think d20 companies will continue to reinvent the wheel (or invent the wheel at the same time) or will we start to get cross-publisher cooperation on additional rules for stuff like this?
Any comments?
