d20 mecha

[archer8228]

I'm loking for some clarification. I was looking forward to the d20 mecha compendium, but now I understand that it is going to be a suplement for another company's mecha system. What are the two companies involved, what are the names of the books and are there any realease dates? Thanks!

Guardians of Order, is the company. Dunno about the rest.

Guardians of Order will do a d20 Mecha core rulebook.

DP9 will do a d20 Mecha Compendium supplement, based on GOO's above rulebook.

re: D20 Mecha Compendium

You can go check out the product's page on our Web site. It has been updated with a sample design from the book (a Fantasy mecha):

http://www.dp9.com/Products/d20mecha.htm

The page is slightly inexact, as far as the Table of Content goes. We've had to drop the "Near-Future Utility Mecha" and "Planetbusters" from the book due to lack of space. Heck, maybe it's the seed of a second volume, if gamers like this one...

Darn..no police mechs with giant revolvers or super mechs doing calisthenics (SP?)? The sample design (No stats? AH!) is nice, but I really like the Bear mecha.
