Looking for Gamers in T.O Check your email...

Anyone looking to play with an experienced group of gamers and live in or around T.O. drop me a line at sean_mm@hotmail.com. I'll fill you in on our style and games. Primarily d20 games.

Heh, heh I've gotta say the fellow above is pretty much correct. Midnight isn't for everybody and it is quite a challenging setting. That said, if you find you like the style, you will be hard pressed to find a better setting made this year. The folks at FFG just do so much right here. They...

Is it just me, or is this just one long fabulous gaming year? B5 is smashing even if you never play the darn thing. Some people have said that this whole d20 OGL thing would result in much crap little substance. So far, as long as you do a little research into your writers and publishers this...

Just a hearty congratulations to FFG and the team behind the Midnight setting. You've put loads of hard work into making a world that is a blast to play in. Looks like the Ennie's folks agreed. Keep up the great work!

Technically, there still is divine magic. Unfortunately, only the servants of the Enemy (Izrador) have access to it, through the pseudo PC class in Midnight called the Legate. You are correct that feats grant access to spellcasting. Any pc with the right feats can cast, they just can't do much...

I posted this a long time ago, and I still maintain it is the fix with the least amount of bookeeping involved. Check for knockout under the following conditions: - Character takes non-lethal damage equal to Con. - Character takes non-lethal damage equal to current hp. What this does is make...

Magic system portability - Yes. IMO it is. They've opened up spellcasting to every basic class via a feat. However, only Channeler's will have the resources to really excel in that area. Your big flashy spells don't get thrown around at the early levels in the setting, but you can easily remove...

Seriously, I am incredibly impressed by Fantasy Flight Games' new setting. If you are a collector of RPG's this is a must have. My gamers have pretty much gone gaga and insisted I run it. Reading the sourcebook is a pleasure. Congrats to all involved I am extremely impressed.

The first d20 Modern style prestige classes I am aware of are the ones found for the Genetech Setting in the January issue of Dungeon/Polyhedron. There you will find the Guerilla Intruder and the Patrol Pointer. The two PrCs follow the 5 Level format. Morrus has Urban Arcana already, you could...

I second that emotion. I've as yet only heard of only one person with this product. Haven't seen any reviews and my FLGS hasn't been able to track it down. I'm in Ontario, Canada but that has never been a problem when it comes to Rpg's before. I really would like to see a review especially as...

Playtest Interest Patrick, Send me one of those emails please :D Would love to help playtest anything to do with the Spycraft d20 mechanics. Stargate is a quality license, and my group would offer our services to play around on an SG team. I can be reached at sean_mm@hotmail.com

Mistwell, I think JPL was kidding (dismissive humour or something like that, but I think that was the intent, at least that's how I read the smiley at the end of that - sometimes I hate the internet.) If you were truthfully offended then simply ask for an apology. Otherwise, anything to add...

Pbartender - Understood. I agree that what is good for the goose is good for the gander. I was, however, referring to the fact that there are always more npc's than pc's. Your pc's will always end up making more rolls. I have seen variations of your rule. It resembles the save used in the...

JPL - The difference to my mind between lethal and non-lethal unarmed damage is very apparent. It is up to the GM to describe it. It is the difference between just punching away and going for the throat and kidneys. I don't know how many real life fights any of you have seen or been in. I am...
