Can any recommend an adventure in which the party must get from point A to point B while being pursued? Can be any genre.

I am going through my collection because I swear I owned something that has a map of a Cold War-style spy trawler. The best I can find is the d20 Modern Menace Manual, but I though there might have been something else. Does anyone have/remember a product that has a mapped out trawler for a game?

A group of 4-5 8th level adventurers have just descended into the depths of the earth for some underground West-Marches style fun. Because of the constraints of this type of game there is no direct threat to their surface world - so what sort of other things than oppose a big bad would you want...

My war mage just got this spell and is looking forward to some hands-on combat. But I wonder - if I have the time to cast some buffs before it - what spells might mesh nicely with it in the thick of battle. I had some ideas but would welcome the community's thoughts too. With other concentration...

My pirate PCs are 6th level, with a ship of their own and a sea to sail her on! The next session will involve a perilous naval journey, but the group check mechanism seems sort of flat for what I envision to be a major setpiece. Does anyone have ideas to spice up this encounter into something...

I would like to start a game here if there is interest. Looking for about 3 players. The game will start off in Venice, with immediate action, to get folks in the spirit as soon as possible. I am also up to run other GUMSHOE games, even a new setting I have been toying with involving psychics...

Their website is 404. I was hoping to re-download some files I purchased online. Anyone know how to contact them?

Ash and Lex Desiderio’s is an upscale restaurant downtown, favored by upwardly mobile workers for power meetings and multiple-martini lunches. Lex has noon reservations with an attorney named Howard Perdue, the contact who has promised him quick relief from his legal troubles. Ash is sizing...

I'm wondering if there is any interest in playing psionic characters in a modern setting. These would be fairly powered PCs when compared to the rest of the world at large, but up against opponents and organizations that could match or surpass them. Sort of like an X-Men type feel, with the...

Is anyone interested in playing this game, with streamlined d20 rules and a literary Victorian setting? I have an idea for a game set in British India, involving folks like John Watson, Kimball O'Hara, and the like.

I'd like to run an operation using the Call of Cthulhu d20 rules involving a group of Delta Green agents and/or friendlies. The cell will be liaising with a foreign agency to entrap a seeker of forbidden lore. I'd like an emphasis on planning the circumstances of the ultimate encounter prior to...

The Gambling skill says that a character gets a bonus to his skill check roll based on the difference between his Wealth rating and the stake he buys. So a poorer character gets a larger bonus! I think I understand the rationale behind this, but I'd like to hear other thoughts?

Would anyone be interested in such a game? It would be set in 220 BC using Eratosthenes' map of the known world. PCs would be part of the just-defeated Spartan army, which has just been reduced to a pack of about 200 badass ronin. Using True20.

There's no question that you could use the system to run a modern-day thriller, but would most players be turned off with a choice of just two classes?

A few days after your return to Pasadena, Dales asks you in his office. He appears to have cooled down completely from the loss of Pruitt, but quiclky closes the door as you enter and sit. "I haven't given up on getting a hold of this guy. Most likely, he's headed back east, but whether he...

Please tell me they are not small amphibians with loud piercing peeps!

After the sudden and chaotic fall of Saddam Hussein's regime in April, 2003, looters removed over 14,000 objects from the Iraqi National Museum in Baghdad. Although academics from around the world had arranged that culturally important sites like this would be spared from the coalition's...
