There are two other third-party Spycraft products due for release soon - Combat Missions and Most Wanted. Can't remember their release dates atm though :(

Poly's never been the same since the UK version was forceably merged with the US version. No disrespect to Erik Mona he can only work within the boundaries that have been set, but sorry, it's just not as good.

From past experience, AEG normally ship to the distributors at the end of the release month, with it going on sale shortly thereafter. I wouldn't expect to see it in the shops until the beginning of September personally. As for the Gen Con copies, AEG got 1000 (or so) printed specifically for...

I haven't bought Dungeon/Poly in months - I don't play D&D so the scenarios are of no use, and the material in Poly is not worth the money (£3.50 for a mini-game, article and map? No thanks). Don't get me wrong, I like Poly, just not willing to pay for scenarios I'll never use. Finally, I...

1.) How many players in your group? 12, but we normally split into 2 different groups 2.) Do you DM? Yes 3.) Do other people in the group DM, and how many? Yes, roughly all (although some have only just started out as DMs) 4.) What's the Male/Female composition of the group? 1 female, the...

Fair points, I look forward to reading more :) Admittedly not as difficult, but the training course for being an administrator in the RAF is 26 weeks long, if you add in the 7 weeks basic military training, it's longer than the Commandos ;)

I wouldn't agree that the Royal Marines (Commandos) are spec ops, but then I'm ex-RAF :D

I can work out the SAS and SBS, but what's the third?

This is a good site for information (perhaps one of the best out there): http://www.specwarnet.com/europe/sas.htm

<the rest is snipped to save space> That's the best overview I've seen of the two systems yet. Much better than I could have written. Thanks, it made interesting reading (even though I've got both and am already a Spycraft fan).

So do I :D Thanks for the compilation

More specialised locations. For example an airport (not just the terminals, although they would make good 5x5 grid maps, but an overview of the runways, terminals and maintenance buildings).

Both (d20 Modern and Spycraft) are good at what they aim to do. Personally I prefer Spycraft over d20 Modern, but then, I'm a big espionage fan (although Spycraft can do more than that but that's a different discussion). As for Modern Arms Guide v Ultramodern Firearms, I'd go with the one that...

Very Ice Station-esk. That's not a bad thing, I love that book - and the rest he's written (Contest, Temple and Area 7). I'm presuming you've read the book yourself. If not, great minds think alike :D So, yes, I'd love to see more of your maps. BTW, anyone interested in finding out more about...

The problem might be caused if you've got Acrobat v4. If the PDF was created using Acrobat 5 there are sometimes compatibility problems.

Not wanting to start another argument ;) but I was surprised that this thread wasn't just deleted or, at least, locked. After all, it's advertising a non-d20 product }:)

You know, for some reason I thought they were windows! Thanks :)

It might just be me, but I can't see anyway of actually getting into the bank. Additionally, what is a MAC Machine. Is it what we Brits call a cash-point machine? Other than that, I like :D

Not another link, but an endorsement of em4. I bought 2 each of their suits at Gen Con UK last year for use with Spycraft and haven't regretted it since. I've also picked up some toy cars at my local toyshop that are almost the right scale for 25mm figures. My cars are made by Maisto (examples...

I've only got Modern Maps (the first one of the series). My personal gripes are that the PDF is "locked" so you can't copy the maps into, say, another document so that you can play with them and that there is no grid super-imposed to make game-play easier. Having said that, they are both minor...
