As I continue reading SC 2.0, I like it more and more. But it does have *a lot* of moving parts. I don't have too much trouble following all the modifiers and special conditions, but if I had a player new to roleplay or if I was otherwise unfamiliar with d20 mechanics, I'd probably start with...

Darwin's World has hundreds of pages of material and is still being published. The authors regularly check this board and their own. New material comes out regularly. Cosmetically there is little flavor difference between the two. Of the folks I've seen post, most like the mutation system of...

I picked up SC 2.0 after reading about the awards. I must say I like it a lot. I'm not sure I could say I like one more than the other. But I can say that many of the best elements of SC could be ported to Modern and if I were WotC and I could navigate copyright and/or licensing I'd make a...

I don't think anyone should be surprised that d20 Modern is a tiny fraction of the WotC product profolio or that they would therefore rarely promote it. As long as they continue to print core rules (or barring that continue to use the OGL), then d20 Modern will enjoy fans. The flavor materials...

I dig it. I always hoped that Blue Devil Games would join up with Dispatch. Good stuff. I'm sure what the statement about "adventure material" means. The Dispatch articles have been everything from feat collections, to new equipment, to rule variants, to new organizations, to new locations...

Most mooks are nameless and I just make up their combat stats by swag. If an NPC has a key skill check to make then I figure he/she has maxium ranks in it with as much as a +2 misc bonus to the check (this assumes I find it reasonable for the NPC to have the particular skill). I don't waste...

Those hacks? hehehe... By the way they are also listed and offer a number of great freebies on their website. But no future freebies if I recall correctly. But they are definitely one of the best and perhaps the most reputable.

Also check out the d20 Modern Resources list (below). On that list is complete (and free) PDF's for Aliens, Predator and Terminator settings--good for free bad guys and gear if nothing else. There is also several entire campaign settings--Nova Wars and Amethyst come to mind. MODERNIZED...

While you're at the 12 to midnight site, check out the d20 Modern Resource list as well (linked below). Lots of free stuff to compliment your new stuff. Of particular high value (IMO) is Michael Tresca's site, MODERNIZED and the equipment guide pdf--all are free downloads with hundreds of...

Modern Dispatch has done a series of adventure generators that would keep you coming up with good random ideas. But if you're not that great at (or just don't like) coming up with you're own game material/scenarios... then you need to be a player, man! Hehe. Get one of your mooks to run a few...

Thanks for the good work. In regards to OGL advice... smile and nod then check with your lawyer. Don't respond in this particular forum. WotC isn't really motivated to go after small websites as a general rule. However, many of their writers read this forum. If you come off too arrogant or...

The stuff RPGO does is great! I'm not looking for 300+ pages detailed campaign material... just a little more Chuck Rice research on things like... the history of the Vatican, expanded history of the Templars, additional secret societies, etc. Of course I can come up with my own and I can...

I gave a bare skeleton of what could be done with Angels... There are several hosts of angels after all... much more than just the Nephilim. Plus, what of the true angels? Not just the half-breeds? Of course only the half breeds can play with the Mortals (according to Constantine anyway)...

I'm surprised there aren't more requests for additional Blood & Relics material. It's a fantastic setting that can address many campaigns and seems to tie immediately in to the fantasy/romance novel fad that's popular right now (Laura Hamilton, Kelly Harrison, Anne Rice, Dan Brown, etc.) I'd...

OOC: Slammed at work and home. Two major Sprint launch initiative due in Oct/Nov plus 2 kid birthdays and 3 extended family birthdays. I'm hamstrung on posting time. I'll be spotty for a week or two.

Sgt Jackson JJ curses quietly. Farging slippery arab... you got lucky this time. He pulls back down in to cover. That bridge is trouble. He opens the mic on the comm unit. "If Paddy doesn't want the bugger in his tank, well then he doesn't go in the tank. Leave him on the ground for...

Sgt Jackson JJ keeps sweeping for the last Iraqi while talking in to the radio. "Jesus H. Christ! It's going to take a bomb squad 30 minutes to get here and by that time we'll still be shaking the mortar dust out of our clothes. Radio it in and report we got a situation here. Now cellphones...

Sgt Jackson JJ listens to all the radio chatter. "Doc, try to save that last man. I'll see if i can spot the guy that got away. I don't know dick about cellphone bombs, but can't you just take the damn battery out?" Jackson looks cautiously over the rise of the bridge.

Sgt Jackson Jackson watches Caesar advance through the lens of the rifle sight. Crazy jarhead going to get his ass blown up. JJ moves to another angle and keeps an eye on Caesar to provide him with all the cover he may need. While moving he's mulling over options. "Hey there Doc see if we...
