    D20 Steampunk Setting? Does one exist?

    Also, while not steampunk - if you end up liking Etherscope, check out A|State from contested ground studios. It's also got that 'Modern Victoriana' feel to it. Less steampunk, but if you add the 'scope stuff from Etherscope, it makes for a hella fine addition.

    D20 Steampunk Setting? Does one exist?

    While I haven't played it, I've purchased everything for it and it is quite neat. My only issue is that, while d20, is not d20 fantasy, or d20 modern. It's sort of in the middle. It uses most of d20 modern, but has it's own base classes. Either way, it is a great book for inspiration of a...

    Terminator as an RPG...HELP needed

    M&M with the right PL and points would probably be very good for it. I prefer True20 as a simpler (to me) rules set, but I can see where the issue can get wonky with construct style PCs. As long as your player(s) are all human - any system should work fine. If you're trying to allowe...

    Imperial Age Omnibus?

    Honestly, what are the chances that someone knows imperial age, WANTS imperial age, but is not already a fan of d20 Modern, or can't pick up the MSRD stuff to bring it into Imperial Age? I'd like to see some of EtherScope make it in!

    Imperial Age Omnibus?

    Since True20 is my system of choice now, if anything I'd rather see things move in that direction, but since True20 doesn't need a plethora of advanced classes, I can see how going that direction would not benefit Adamant.

    He's a Chain-Smoking Detective. He's a Robot on the Lam. Together, They Fight Crime!

    I would pay Peterson for this setting. With real money. :P

    Adamant Switching Over To A $1 Sale

    Wow, I just bulked up my collection and got into imperial age and mars myself. Best $18 spent to date.

    Supers20 Q&A

    Well, this might just be the one thing that trips me over to the Modern20 system. I still wish you had an option for damage save like True20.

    Rocketship Empires 1936 Released...

    w00t. I've been waiting for this since it was announced and will definately pick it up soon. I like systemless, although I've heard that ship creation rules are a full on system of their own. It looks fantastic so far, and I like that they waited long enough to get some other things out at the...

    Whiney players....

    Gaming anymore has become much more complicated since we were kids. I don't remember having ANY of these "I'm not in the spotlight" issues playing D&D. I can't believe that, as adults, we're suddenly more prone to act like the kids many of us were when we started playing. It's all "ME ME ME"...

    [Skortched Urf' Studios] Black Tokyo Released

    I can only say that mccathro has been quite polite so far in defending his product. Sure, we see things differently, and that's ok. However, he took my criticism as what it was, and I think he even understands that things were not perfect. I'm not going to bother asking for a 'refund' because...

    Racing towards singularity

    [Skortched Urf' Studios] Black Tokyo Released

    Criticism is not meant to make people happy. I'm glad that this refresher helped you understand my point of view a little bit better. I still think that magic dildos are a bit too much for my tastes, but for the most part attempted to leave it behind and focus on the product. While I have not...

    [Skortched Urf' Studios] Black Tokyo Released

    I just went back and finally read the other 2 reviews, and honestly, I think we can see where the 3 of us all agree on most of the 'issues' with the product. I didn't see anything in there where anyone thought that 'Oh god, Hentai is teh pr0n.' Everyone seems to understand the basis of what the...

    [Skortched Urf' Studios] Black Tokyo Released

    Ok, I'll say this one last time - The subject matter was not what gave this product a negative review. I may not care for Hentai, but I tried to glean value from what was presented. The writing was less than spectacular, in fact, less than what I consider average. The layout was way less than...

    [Skortched Urf' Studios] Black Tokyo Released

    Read the first post over again. Publisher states that it's a d20 modern SETTING book. The amount of 'setting' in here is very low in comparison to the amount of near pr0n content. I looked around for a spellchecker in the post editor but couldn't find one. However, it didn't cost you $12 to...

    [Skortched Urf' Studios] Black Tokyo Released

    While I agree with some of your statements, I don't think the review was as harsh as you make it out to be. I fully agreed that Hentai wasn't my style, so I tried to keep it as fair as I could without thrashing the style. I understand you're a small company, but hey - layout is layout. Fonts...

    [Skortched Urf' Studios] Black Tokyo Released

    Holy 38MB PDF file, Batman!! No wonder you don't want to have a second file in the zip. Surely there's a way to compress that down a bit. Either way, I couldn't wait. I'm still at work and stupid for doing so, but I'm laughing my butt off the whole time. After the first 3 words of the book I...

    [Skortched Urf' Studios] Black Tokyo Released

    Yeah, I'm just waiting for my boss to catch me posting in this thread... at least I have the decency and will power not to buy it and read it at work without the blurries. Is there a blurred out copy included when you buy? Or a 'less art' version? I wouldn't mind the full version for home, but...
