Hmmm...that is a major change to Cosmopolitan. Though, Versatile can be used to make up for it.

I have not read the entire thread. I really enjoy the D20 System. I am currently adopting a D20 Point/Buy method of character creation and improvement. BESM D20 and Mutants & Masterminds has influenced me greatly in this regard. What D20 lacks is one big book to run a Multi Genre campaign.

My exposure to Mecha is limited. Though, I picked up D20 Mecha as well. I just thought that it would add more Sci Fi spice to my campaign. And it has, so far; quite well.

Ah! I see. Excellent example. Thanks for the tutorial! :cool:

I picked it up last weekend. I really like it too. It will fit nicely in my campaign. :cool:

Been gaming for 25 years. I've played through all of the D&D line. Two years ago, I left D&D. I no longer play the Fantasy Genre exclusively. I am a multi genre type of player now. Though, thinking about my start; is fine reminiscing material. :cool:

I've recently picked Spycraft up. Great book! It will fit well within my campaign. I have a question about Education. Can Education be used instead of Knowledge Skills? It sort of makes sense to. Most college graduates have a little bit of knowledge in a lot of things. Especially if they...

Some possible options: Knowledge-Culture (insert Race here). E.G. Knowledge-Culture (Orcs) Knowledge-Society (insert Species here) E.G. Knowledge-Society (Giant) Perhaps, Knowledge-Non-Human. E.G. Knowledge-Goblins.

I had thought about that too. Lemme see if I have the idea down right. An Education Check *might* allow them to answer the above question, "What is the worlds largest Rodent". The DC might be a 15 or so. Whereas if the same question came up and character had say, Knowledge: Zoology, the DC...

I'm allowing all the mixing the players want to do. I leave the Game Mechanics up to them and if I think they've explained themselves well enough, I approve. I am easy that way.

Would the spreadsheet be universal for the D20 System?

Thanks for the links.

*looks at idea* *steals it* :)

I have been inspired to rethink just what my characters know. I felt that the "Knowledge" skills were either not broad enough or too specific. A new Skill category emerged and it has helped me greatly. "Hobby". Examples: Hobby: Art, Comics, Current Events, Dance, Folklore, Mythology RPGs...

Actually, I was trying to distance myself from Classes perse and D&Disms as a whole. I felt that a Point/Buy System would be the most flexible, generic and simplist way to allow a player to make the kind of character they want. I do like the idea of handing out EXP, which in turn are used...

April 1st, Circa 1986. A couple of friends I hauled my English Teacher's canoe into his house...while he was sleeping. We placed it in the hallway just outside his bedroom. We were making all of our Move Silently and Don't Laugh We're Being Sneaky checks by a long ways. The following day...

GURPS and HERO have been using the Point/Buy System for years. BESM D20 and Mutants & Masterminds have adopted the methodology. I really like it. I have decided to allow my players to make any D20 Character using the Point/Buy method. Since BESM D20 is OGC, whereas M&M is not; I'll refer you...

There are three things to consider: 1. Will multiclassing be unrestricted? Modern adopted the 'no penalties' rule for multiclassing. 2. Will Advanced Classes and Prestige Classes be available? 3. Will the players use all of this? Personally, I like the 10 Levels dynamic, if the answer to...

I'd also vote for D20 Dune. I am hoping that D20 Future will handle a lot of what I am looking for, until someone puts out the Dune Setting.

Hmmm.... "I'm your Boogie Man, Boogie Man; turn me on!" I don't know, I am kind of afraid of Disco....KC of The SunShine Band most certainly could be a Greater Fiend... :)
