Some new vehicles appeared in Year of the Zombie (not really new, just stats of current military hardware that hadn't been statted before). Ralts is trying to create a vehicle construction resource, but the current d20 Modern vehicle stats is frustrating the hell out of him.

It's like Dimension X meets Neo-Nazi fantasy meets ecologist's nightmare! I like it. It's nice to see influences from d20 Future bleed into a d20 Modern adventure path. And given the writers, I don't think it can go very wrong.

According to my electronic receipt from PayPal, I successfully paid the sum of $45.00 USD for a 1-year Community Supporter account on November 25th, 2005. Since that time, however, I have been unable to make use of Community Supporter features, such as the Custom User Title, or Community...

* * * * * The controls came to life in Locke's hands. He was seated (more correctly, standing) in the cockpit of a UCM model 2A1 “Everyman” mech, one of thirteen stowed in this decommission facility. Finding the mechs here was part of Junin's plan; for the past three weeks, Locke and his...

Thing is, I think any such open-source game would have to be very far away from anything derived from the SRD or other OGL material, to avoid a new license conflicting with the OGL.

* * * * * For twenty minutes, Locke spoke to the gathered throng in the cramped subway station. His words stretched the minutes into a single eternity. “We are not born into this world as servants to the Dictat. We are born free men and women, and we can live as free men and women! We are...

Update: Now that Urban Combat Mecha: the Lioness is complete, I will be beginning work on Merc Manual: Korbah's Stompers. For anyone following the flavour text and NPCs of the Urban Combat Mecha series, you've seen the name "Korbah's Stompers" come up a few times. The first Merc Manual will...

Just wanted to say, first, that the Mark 7 Urban Defender is a great mech design, and the way its presented in the PDF (with two variants as well as new gear) is excellent. I did notice one glitch, though... the OGL Section 15 refers to the SRD for fantasy rather than the MSRD, which actually...

Heh, I almost forgot that that WAS one of the ones I am planning on doing; thanks for reminding me!

Definitely more specialized. I want to explore more possibilities with chemical enhancement. RIFTS Juicers were obviously a very big inspiration for the C-Aug Soldier, and I'd like to do C-Aug versions of some of the Juicer variants (like a C-Aug Sprinter or a C-Aug Pilot). I want to do a...

After just recently discovering how amazing of a writer David Drake is, I am nearly done The Tank Lords (thank you, Baen Free Library!). If anyone can recommend more of his novels, or other authors who write in a similar vein, I'd be much appreciated.

Actually, the Variable Ammunition gadget works by having two or more different sources of ammunition (like two different box magazines), with a fire selector to switch which ammo source the weapon draws from. It's not that far out.

The subway conveyed them through the black underveins of the city. The cars were empty save for them, the mechanic and his apprentice. They sat next to each other, the grime covering their arms and clothes rendering them indistinguishable from each other. The air around them cringed with words...

I dunno, the Variable Ammunition gadget in d20 Future kind of resolves the "one type of ammo" issue in ballistic weapons.

It's a wiki, nothing's stopping you from making the category yourself.

Before I begin, I'd like to say that I think SFX Skills: Diabolism is a great resource for any game featuring occult power. HeapThaumaturgist is a solid writer and a good guy; I'd recommend picking this up if you can (and you can get it here). That said; for those of you who have SFX Skills...

I bow to your ranks in Knowledge (tactics), smokewolf. If there's one thing I have yet to see in a Military d20 Modern game, it's a well-laid minefield. Certainly gives me some ideas...

The current d20 Modern system doesn't model damage intervals for splash weapons like grenades (as in, dealing maximum damage at minimum distance, and doing less damage in larger radii increments). Also, the current system supports interchangeability between missiles, grenades, and mines. So...

An utterly worthless and unfair review. The product isn't even discussed at all.

Something I'd like to point out. Since the SRD is part of your FCR to begin with, then according to statement 5, anything derived from the SRD is fair game. Considering that all open content derives from the SRD (you will not find an OGL section 15 that does not cite one or both SRDs), then...
