Darwin's World: Artifacts of the Ancients included a number of vehicles and weapons, as well as vehicle rules. The main DW book had rules for modern day firearms. There was also a series of 'Cyber Style' sourcebooks available for a near future type setting... they had a firearms and a vehicles...

Ken Hood had a non-magical Ranger variant called the Bushfighter posted at the Sleeping Imperium site. Here's a link: http://www.sleepingimperium.rpghost.com/downloads/bushfighter.pdf Leaghe

I don't know if this will work in your situation... On one occasion, I had the local church sponsor training and equipment for the PCs. Naturally, there were a few problems popping up that the church wanted to quash, so it made an easy transition into the next module... Leaghe

http://www.fastforwardgames.com/ There's yer link for Metamorphosis Alpha. I also got an email from Erik Mona a few minutes ago, indicating that a d20 version of Gamma World was slated for the September issue of Polyhedron. Long Live Gamma World! Leaghe

I agree with Wilde Karrde 100%. However, since the changes are supposed to be presented in a free pdf that owners of the original book can download, I think that qualifies as a 'patch' or 'fix'. I just hate sorting through all the changes and marking appropriate areas in my book. Leaghe

Yessss.... I actually have a copy of 'Marc Miller's Traveller', which is a nicely detailed sci-fi game I've never actually run. Perhaps I should skip SW revised and get Traveller d20 instead. I suspect it would suit my gaming style better anyway. When is Traveller d20 being released? Leaghe

I have no idea what the rules derived from Episode II will consist of, so I can't say I don't like them. I just... don't care. Personally, I use the Star Wars book for a generic SF setting. More detail on specifically on the SW setting doesn't interest me. Leaghe

I'll buy it, but I'm not real thrilled about it. They are including enough material from the sourcebooks and new rules that I think its worth buying... but I grind my teeth when I think of buying what is essentially the same game twice. Oh... I could care less about the Episode 2 material. Leaghe

Here's all the stuff on their web site about Empire (sorry, kind of long): Empire - The complete guide to d20 sci-fi gaming. OWC 4001 - 256 pages, hardcover, $34.95 (Available Fall 2002) Really whets the appetite, doesn't it? The COMPLETE guide... and it will all fit in 256 pages. Leaghe

New Polyhedron rocks. Can't compare it with the old Poly, since I never saw a copy. Sorry, Dagger75, you are a very small minority. Leaghe

Anyone else notice the number of first time posters appearing on this thread? Behold.... the power of Gamma World (not cheese). Leaghe

If you read the title of this thread, you know almost everything I do about it. Empire is supposed to be a new sci-fi setting slated to be released by OWC sometime this fall. Surely we can wheeedle some details out of those nice OWC guys, right? Can you give us even a general idea of what we...

I'll be getting Call of Cthulhu. If I can actually con someone to into playing with me, I'll run straight up CoC. I think Delta Green was one of the best sourcebooks I've ever seen (for any game), so I'm thinking I'll probably go with CoC modern-day setting. Leaghe

Thank You, Erik (wipes a tear from his eye). You are surely assured a place in heaven. Gamma World MUST haves: Cryptic Alliances. Sentient Animals as PCs. Mutations, and lots of them. High Tech as Artifacts. Radiation & Mutagen rules. Other things GW should have, but don't make my top 5, are...

There are several conversions in the files section of this Yahoo group: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/gammaworldd20 Leaghe

Hmm. I was looking specifically for modern games, not futuristic ones. Darwin's World is a nice d20 futuristic game. But modern games are a little tougher to find. I had forgotten about Malls & Morons (I hang my head in shame), but still - I think you'll agree that Malls and Morons falls into a...

I think there is a real dearth of modern era d20 games out there. Anyone want to correct me and provide me with a list? I particularly like modern settings, but when I call to mind d20 products that feature this, the new Shadowchasers is all that comes to mind. I don't particularly like the...

I shouldn't be revealing this... but hey! Sometimes, without telling the players, I extend the round to seven or eight seconds so the dragon doesn't lose its tail attack. Most times the players never notice I've 'warped time'. If they do comment on it, I lie and say that it is due to the...

hmm. Here anything on when the "update package" will become available to those of us with the original version? Leaghe

Heh. I didn't really get the "W'aat Cee Thug" thing til I read the description. I must be a little slow on the pickup. Any hints you want to drop on what content we can look forward to? Leaghe
