    PDQ to PbtA conversion (math/probability help?)

    I love PDQ. At least, 90% of it. The 'freeform' chargen with qualities instead of stats. The building of a total "MOD" for the 2d6+MOD roll by choosing which qualities apply. Everything I want in a TTRPG. But it does have one thing I hate...and that's (no, not the death spiral ironically) --...

    Where to start...it's been a while [NewDM] [PDQ]

    I haven't played an RPG in 15 years. Maybe more. I DM'd an online chat d20 Modern Game for like 3 sessions and we tired of it. But my kiddo (10) is interested in RPGs and so we want to do a family game with my wife and occasionally with our daughter (15). I played some serious D&D at 10...so I...

    Modern20, True20, and RPGO/Chuck Rice

    Question for Vigilance: I know you wrote up a few True20 books, and it looked like things were cooking for RPGO and yourself to roll full steam with True20. But, since then, Modern20 and Martial Arts20 has hit the shelves, and (being your own internal house system), is likely to see many more...

    Good Seaside Town Map

    Looking for a good (free!) map of a seaside town, sort of like Freeport. I downloaded the Freeport maps, but in the end, they are just not what I desire. Can anyone link me to a few good and free maps of a seaside town about the size of Freeport?

    Irc - Mnpr:rpg Wednesday Nights

    Looking to start up a light hearted MNPR:RPG game on IRC, Wednesday nights. Looking to play for about 1.5-2 hour max sometime between 7 and 10pm Eastern time. Post here, or drop into #d20modern on the otherworlders.net server (the same server the EN chat room is on).

    Transformers

    Just got back from watching the movie. I'm fired up like nobody's business. I doubt I'll fall asleep in the next 2 hours or so. All I can say was: AWESOME! The tongue in cheek comedy was interesting, special effects were great but bordering on a little too much. Wow! Oh, and since when was a...

    Contested Ground - A|State PDF

    Is there a PDF available anywhere for A|State RPG? I've been dying to grab it, but at $30 for a hardcover sight unseen, I'm a bit skeptical. Does anyone know if there is a place for this? Is anyone from Contested Ground alive to answer this?

    I'll try this again.. 2 of us in North Baltimore, looking to game. Pretty much anything but D&D. DitV, d20 Modern, True20, you name it. I'll GM if I must. Looking to game Saturday/Sunday afternoons, 2-3 times a month.

    True20 Companion: Who's got it?

    Yay! True20 companion is (FINALLY!) out. I downloaded it earlier and read through some of it. Who has it? Opinions? I'm really excited to see the non-fantasy setting chapters to see how I can move all my modern gaming from d20 modern to True 20.

    Find an old thread - d20Modern Quick NPC maker

    I'm looking for the quick NPC stat-up rules for d20 modern that are loosely based on spycraft. I've gone page by page back as far as a year, and I just can't seem to see it. If you find it, please link to it for me. :) If anyone downloaded it, please link it here, or email to me - my username @...

    Fall of Man

    Ok, this comes up every few months, but I'm back to ask again. :) Who's doing MEG's Fall of Man, and when is it coming?

    EN World hombrewers...and I'm not talking about rules

    So, after a friend introduced me to the hobby, today my roommate and I unofficially 'founded' our new brewery by brewing our first batch of homebrew red ale. We definately made a few mistakes, which is ok. (Relax. Don't worry. Have a homebrew.) Mistakes that should definately be fixed next time...

    d20m - Template list

    Just for reference purposes (and because I could really use it right now) I'd like to get a list together of d20 Modern templates, and where they can be found (plus a quick description if possible). I'll start: Changeling (Urban Arcana) -----Changelings are the result of 1 Sidhe, and 1...

    Players with Guns vs Melee bad guys

    This sort of ties into the ravenloft thread, but is generic enough that I thought it deserved it's own thread. What can be done about players with guns taking on bad guys without guns? It seems very lopsided that the PCs will win unless you stack the odds by placing more bad guys than they can...

    Adamant - Mars sourcebook

    Gareth, Any update? Been a while since the free preview, and talk about it seems to have died down. Any recent updates on when we might see this?

    Zombies: Plot Help

    Ok, so if I were to run a zombie horror game, there would be the typical plots of surviving the zombies and killing the zombies...but that's not enough for me. What other plots and sub-plots can be used in a good zombie killfest?

    Baltimore Metro - Group ready, just need a DM

    Ok, so a group of us have decided to start gaming again. 2 of us know d20, 1 is new to d20, but played before, 1 is a complete n00b. We need another player and/or GM. I'm not a good GM (at least how I feel about it) and the others lack the time and experience to do it. We're looking to stay...

    IPR: Damaged item return/replacement

    I know there's an IPR forum, but it seems quite small and I know Wulf and a bunch of people from there lurk here. I'm sorry if I should have posted it on your site. When you ship books, do you have insurance? I noticed my Grim Tales book was beaten on all 4 corners pretty badly when I opened...
