    Character Sheets for Modern

    I bought these too, but I was totally disappointed in all the character sheets. They have soo much white space and waste so much space in general it made my head spin. They look like they where made for people with really big hand writing. The first page of the d20 Modern sheet looks status...

    Firefly RPG I want it!

    There is a real easy way to do a Firefly like game. Take all of your old Stardrive, Star Frontiers, and Traveller source books and mix them all together and shake em up real good. Now throw out all the alien species (except the cow fetus aliens that live in glass jars). Also throw out all of...

    Superbowl 2004!

    When you go to look for news stories about the "Janet" incedent every single one of the mainstream news organizations (fox, abc, cbs, nbc, etc.) all have the exact same stupid associated press article posted on there websites. What ever happened to writing original stories. This kind of thing...

    Wounds

    Ive been using Torn Asunder:Critical Hits in my FR game for many months now with great success. Its not just a critical hit and wound system either its also a called shot system and includes rules that flesh out the heal skill and expand healing magic. It would be a simple thing to make it...

    Freeport without the gunpowder

    I use Freeport and make extensive use of pirates in my FR - Vilhon Reach campaign without using a drop of gunpowder (or smokepowder). And it has worked just fine. The Pirates make extensive use of crossbows and ballistas and in FR ships can be armed with Thayin bombards, which are cannons...

    D20 Modern: Purchase DC for Items not in Core Book

    Well I would say just find an item on the equipment lists thats in the same price range as what you are looking for and give it a similar DC. For a bicycle, depending on the quality and brand, I would give it anywhere from a 9 all the way up to a 14. If you are looking for more equipment to...

    What do you do for miniatures?

    Someone over at the Wizards boards recommened this place: http://www.wargamesfoundry.com/collections/SV/index.asp There mini's look pretty damn cool and appropriate for Modern.

    d20 Modern on a Different World?

    I think the other thing to keep in mind when doing this is to only create what you need for the game. Dont go over board writing up detailed histories and geographies, or explinations on how magic and technology interact. Only explain just as much as you can get away with and leave the rest...

    d20 Modern on a Different World?

    You wouldn't want it to be the focus of your campaign but sure you could still have dungeon crawls. Think about what a modern version of Waterdeep would be like in the year 2372 DR. It would be a sprawling metropolis with milions of people living in it and it would propably have several...

    Any other Setttings Released

    The Lone Star in Mesquite still has copies of the last couple of issues of Dragon so its a safe bet that Lone Star on Preston Rd (which is a larger store) just across the freeway from Valley View Mall would have it.

    Percentage of Gamers in Texas

    I live in Mesquite and I run a FR campaign with five players. So when are we going to have another Dallas Games Day, the last one was great. I really enjoyed d20dwarf and donAdams games.

    Why is The Book of Exalted Deeds for Mature Readers?

    p150, The Court of Stars. Queen Morwel, has two "consorts" (which is the monarchal or feudal way of saying spouse), a man, Faerinaal, and a women, Gwynharwyf. It doesn't out right say she is bisexual, it does rather imply it, especially after you read the entries for all three characters.

    [Modern]Bonuses by State?

    I would add: * Personal Firearms Proficiency (the CHL is quite in vouge in many places) Dont forget in Texas a Yankee is anyone from north or east of the Red River. So i would give them bonuses when defending against the northern invasion.

    [Modern]Bonuses by State?

    Don't forget this ability most natives have: Drive Like a Demon:All native Texans think they are potintial Nascar material. They get +2 to drive checks when on freeways and +2 to Intimidate non-natives when driving. Native Texans always drive 20 to 30 miles over the speed limit when on...

    Why is The Book of Exalted Deeds for Mature Readers?

    Well one tidbit right off the top of my head is that the book features a hero who is a bisexual. Some parents may not like the idea of a game book teaching their 13 year old what to think about sexual behavior. Most parents like to reserve the right to pass on their own social mores to there...

    Am I a snooty gamer? [Book of Exalted Deeds]

    I bought BoED yesterday. You mean it has an introduction! I didn't even notice. I guess I was too busy reading the variant rules, new feats, prestige classes, spells, Paragons, and monsters too notice. To be serious, I think you are being something of an elitist. You should be buying a...
