[QUOTE="Kaptain_Kantrip, post: 77210, member: 546"] Here's some nifty random thoughts on how you too can create your own d20 "Survival Horror" RPG... AEG's Spycraft (combined with WoTC's Call of Cthulhu, Pulp Heroes and Shadowchasers) would work well for a Resident Evil game, whether playing S.T.A.R.S. cops or Umbrella agents... BREAKDOWN (mining for "crunchy" bits): Pulp Heroes has a great Mad Scientist and Soldier class plus car chase rules, and Shadowchasers has neat horror rules. Spycraft has good secret agent classes and modern equipment/combat rules. Call of Cthulhu d20 RPG Core Rulebook in March will have lots of icky monster goodness (most of the Resident Evil monsters are H.P. Lovecraft/Cthulhu rip-offs anyway). Steve Jackson Games has a set of Floorplans called "Mall of the Dead" that maps out an entire multistorey shopping center so you can recreate DAWN OF THE DEAD, CHOPPING MALL or other modern "trapped in the mall" horror movies. Neat! d20 Modern (not out til October) will also have complete d20 rules for running all types of modern settings. RESOURCES: Pulp Heroes is in Dungeon #90 (out last December) Shadowchasers is in Dungeon #91 (released earlier this month) Call of Cthulhu releases in March d20 Modern releases in October Spycraft (full rules book) releases later this year (spring/summer?) Download the "Spycraft Lite" rules for free NOW from [url]http://www.seriesarcher.com[/url] Floorplans: Mall of the Dead is available now from Steve Jackson Games. Includes tons of double-sided maps (hex and square versions), zombie/victim "cardboard heroes," complete description of the mall's locations and stats for Eden Studio's zombie RPG, ALL FLESH MUST BE EATEN. Suitable for use with GURPS (hex based) and d20 (square based) and all similar RPGs. Speaking of ALL FLESH MUST BE EATEN, this RPG is probably a great source to consult for running flesh-eating zombie horror games for any RPG system... Never seen it, but sounds cool. [/QUOTE]
