And speaking of Spycraft... if you're looking for some adventure seeds, cruise by the AEG site and check out the huge archive of downloadable Spycraft adventures. Even if you don't use the game stuff or the particulars, the plot ideas should keep you going for a while.

The polite request AEG put in Spycraft doesn't specify a sidebar, really, it just asks for some kind of shout-out outside of the section 15 notation. Our way of acknowledging our debt to Spycraft is an appreciative paragraph in the sidebar. I know that White Wolf's d20 Adventure specifically...

Yeah, we certainly intend to give credit where credit is due. Spycraft is a big influence on our d20 Modern stuff (and there are places all over this message board where I've certainly expressed my admiration). As per AEG's published request, an upcoming product not only has the proper section...

To my knowledge, the closest place to San Jose that has a good selection of game stuff besides the PHB and DMG (including a lot of great old out of print board games and supplements) is Scenario's in Fremont. Haven't been for years, but I don't see why it wouldn't still be there. They have a...

Well, CoC d20 is not a big leap from d20 Modern-- in fact, John Tynes is one of the people credited in the copyright for the Modern SRD because CoC d20 was one of the sources on which modern was based. If you have d20 Modern and Unearthed Arcana for insanity rules (or Alea Publishing Group's...

It is the razorboar and the scorpionfolk in MM2 that are the OGC-- and they are both from 3rd party publishers originally.

If God wrote a role-playing sourcebook, it would be Delta Green. It is what you need.

It seems to me that most people agree that a quantification of morality is a good thing in the game, but that it should not boil down to bonuses or penalties in combat and should be less vulnerable to arbitrariness on the part of the DM. Therefore, it seems to me that alignment should have its...

Oh, crap. Okay, I am an idiot. We dropped 1000 Faces in favor of the Privilege Talent Tree. If your version has the Privilege talent tree, it is the newest and best version, and you've missed nothing. I was on a public computer when I posted those emails, not at home, and therefore did not...

Reading your post again, I think this perception is a part of your friends problem. M&M was not really a toolkit book, it was a fully realized and internally consistent role-playing game. Yes, it had some optional rules, like most rpg's do, but it was no more a toolkit than D&D. Your friend's...

I thought we did put that in Versatile Hero... Now that I think about it, I believe it is only in the Revised version of POSTMODERN: The Versatile Hero. If you downloaded the old one, you're due a free copy of the Revised one. A lot of people have the option to receive e-mails from RPG Now set...

Just curious, does the Shadowforce Archer stuff work with 2.0 or are there conflicts with the new system?

We're working on something at Big Finger Games called the OGL Basic Set. We've got some more design hurdles to conquer, but if we can pull it off we think its simplicity will be pretty revolutionary. There'll posts on this board when we finish it.

I use the Reserve Points rules from Unearthed Arcana and Iron Heroes. I have tweaked the Occupations some, mostly giving each a bonus feat and other little changes to balance them out more. And I have used a lot of Spycraft-- especially the Chase rules and other dramatic conflict rules from...

Don't tell my employers I did this, but... ;) Here's a talent tree I put together for POSTMODERN: The Versatile Hero that ought to be fun for a spies and assassins game. Let me know if you get any use out of it. New Charismatic Hero Talent: 1,000 Faces Talent Tree Like the super-spies of...

This is something I did for a fantasy setting. Might be adaptable. Wolfkin Origins: The true history of the Wolfkin is a matter of much discussion and controversy. Some say they were men cursed for some great betrayal, others believe an evil god spawned them to torment humans and other races...

Yeah, drama queen kind of seems to fit. I don't think there was a huge portion of the M&M gamer population out there converting to hit points. Hit points do not fit as well for a super-hero system, which is why Kenson created a new system. When the consumers who weighed in the 2nd Edition to...

You made my month! First off, I wanted to note that you made my whole month by including a book I wrote, POSTMODERN: The Versatile Hero, in your list of a definitive d20 Modern library. A person writes these supplements hoping people will not only buy it, but use it. Second, I want to make...

Also, I never paid attention to the Planar Handbook that WotC put out in '04, but looking through it today in the store . . . yeah, it's totally Planescape. Sigil, factions, all that jazz.

Probably. WotC likes fads. ALOT.
