I'd like to see stats for the Final Fantasy characters and the characters from Dragon Ball Z.

I'd keep the classes, love them. I'd change the modern weaponry mechanics. I hate the way armored vehicles are handled, think the ranges are ridiculously short, and that the firearm rules all put together are total garbage. But that's the same rant you guys have heard from me since d20 Modern...

There's bragging rights right there. Gamer #1: "I went to GenCon! We fought traffic, we had problems with the hotel room, I'm telling you, it was the toughest con ever." Gamer #2: "I went to Ziggurat. We got ambushed twice, once on the way there, once on the way back, that's where I got this...

Year of the Zombie is Romero-esque Zombie apocalypse, more of a study in human survival than just a zombie bash-up. I went through the various effects of the fall of mankind, outlined hazards and the like. If you want, you can check it out through my sig, just click on the spoiler section and...

I've been running high level campaigns for a long time. Has something to do with the age of my setting, and the fact that a couple of my players have been playing in the world for about 12 years. Teleport into a high level dungeon? No way. They don't want teleport misdirection to happen, with...

Because they sold the last haul of jewelry they captured on their last adventure for gold? I don't know. Hey, 5,500 gp of jewelry isn't that much if your setting has some seriously exotic metals, some of which with inherent mystical properties. I will admit, that's more from an Epic game...

Amazing. Congratulations. You used a catch phrase from 1998. Your mom must be proud. Not as proud as if you got a job and moved out of the basement, but proud nonetheless.

Only if you're cheap. Good ale, and good whore, well, they cost. So, what do you expect them to spend it all on? Not according to my issue of Dragon magazine. According to this, he played 1E. Yes, if they can read. Wow, talk about flip-flopping. You're worse than a flapjack, hero. Look...

SPENDING 20,000 GP ON WHORES AND A NIGHT ON THE TOWN By T-Willard 1,500gp Piece of jewelry to bribe female guild head to meet for dinner 25gp Vellum invitation to female guild head. 250gp Renting a carriage big enough for 8, with show horses and gilded carriage. 500gp Hiring temporary retainers...

What's this? You expect my character to just buy magic items, and never enjoy the fruits of adventuring? Where's the ale and whores from the legends? Did Conan lie to me that treasure == hot babes and cold ale? Perhaps if there was more to your campaign setting than Kill/loot/repeat ad...

Not everyone. Nice broad brush stroke. I too run a game, it's called "Year of the Zombie" and there are no magic weapons. What's you point? As talked about in other threads on this board: Balance != Good And here's the high horse. "I think of D&D... blargle argle argle." Wow, you could be...

I use the same workaround a lot of times. "OK, we've got to defeat the Demon of the Red Hills, we know he's vulnerable to ice. Wizard, can you make something to defeat him?" "No, sorry." "OK, then we go see Artificer Gillgraunt. And we better bring out wallets." "Ah, it is good to see you...

OOOooooh, I gots me a new ENWorld Chewtoy. Wonder how long this will last. Yes. Being able to fly is cool. Leaping off a cliff in your Batman outfit like you're Wiley Coyote makes you a moron. Being able to come up with ideas is cool. Not being able to balance that idea, and killing everyone...

Your problem is a crappy GM. Plain and simple. The rules are fine, as written, for playing, as long as your GM has the apparently Epic Level Feat: "COMMON GODDAMN SENSE!" when he runs a game. He ran his oh-so-gritty Hovels & Hernia's game, set in a dreary medieval world where the PC's are...

So, since I play in pretty non-convetional settings/games, explain something to me: Your characters all have to toe some invisible line on wealth? You have this glass cieling, right? And ALL of it goes in for magic items, whether or not they are useful? If you meet a certian wealth, a red...

We drug the cleric to shore, and Saduul examined the runic scars twisting over her body. Prayers to Vecna, hymns to his glory, and dark runes that muttered with profane whispers. Her eyes are open, revealing dead white eyes with a green and black symbol of Vecna within them. Saduul set the...

We entered the cave carefully, the monk leading the way, Saduul pulling second rank. The druid had taken some of the entrails from a slain tribesman, poured herbs and powders on it, threw it in the air, and a black skinned, fire wreathed carniverous ape lept from the trees and caught the...

The Diaries of Becka, which is the narration for Year of the Zombie, proved popular enough that 2 things happened: THe enteries were pulled out and consolidated into a single PDF, all the fluff text, no mechanics, to give GM's and players alike a quick read for how the coming of the zombie...

I plan on touching on that eventually, but there's a lot in the queue before that. One thing will stay standard: No magic can cure someone who has been bitten, the zombies cannot be turned. According to the outline I drew up, the usually completely withdraw their power from the mortal sphere...

It's a d20 Modern product. You need d20 Modern to play it. I'll second the advice to grab "Weekend Warriors" because if nothing else, the maps will be useful for when the party gets the idea to hit up the local military base for supplies.
