    D20 Modern Vs. Spycraft

    But isn't that whole point? ;) Agree with you so far... :) This is where I disagree with you . If you want Indiana Jones with Spycraft, buy The Hand of Glory. Indeed, the same supplement gives the Explorer base class which allows for Lara Croft-type characters (The Hand of Glory are a...

    d20 RPGA

    I disagree. While d20 is, on the whole, good, there are loads of excellent, non-d20, systems that the RPGA should cover. However, I'm reminded of the situation the UK had in the late '80s when Games Workshop decided that it's magazine was only going to cover it's products. It was good for the...

    [OWC] Countdown Page Added to Site!

    No, but quite a few are annoyed at the way our government brown-nose the American government! Are you seriously trying to annoy me? I'm Scottish and a member of the British Armed Forces. NOT the English Armed Forces. Your statements should read: So that leaves the U.S. and Britain. So, that...

    [OWC] Countdown Page Added to Site!

    Firstly, MI5 wouldn't (their area of responsibility is internal) - MI6 might though (as they are responsible for external affairs). However, the point of my post was that Bagpuss wrote: (emphasis is mine) He said someone, not any specific nation or agency. You responded with: Immediately...

    Apologises from us Brits. We forgot our place. Of course, only the American government is allowed to make that sort of decision, being as how they run the world!

    What was your first PC's name?

    Narak Nurtha a dwarf in my friend's Warhammer Fantasy Role Play/DragonLance campaign (well, it was DragonLance using the Warhammer Fantasy Role Play rules). Started off as a beggar and ended up a Baron (working on the wrong side I might add!). IIRC that campaign last 5 years!

    When did you start gaming?

    1984 - I bought myself Basic D&D for my 13th birthday (although I'd been reading those Fighting Fantasy books for a while). The funny thing is my first ever role playing experience was running Games Workshops' Judge Dredd RPG about 6 months later (I didn't really like the "complexity" of 1st Ed...

    Conception 2003 (UK Con)

    Sorry if this has been asked before, but how many from here are going to Conception (5-10 Feb) in Bournemouth? Given that it's only a short trip from Morrus' playground I wonder if he's attending?

    Ultramodern Firearms d20

    Sorry for the delay in responding, real life has taken over a little. I'll try and answer both questions here: Warrior: if I could only own either the Modern Arms Guide (MAG) or Ultramodern Firearms (UMF), I would choose the Modern Arms Guide. Why? Because I prefer Spycraft to d20 Modern and...

    [Spycraft] Navigating ??

    I would say it all depends on what you are trying to navigate. You mention two examples: Planning a military action: IMHO covered by Profession: Military or, perhaps even, Knowledge: Military. Given that the Soldier/Wheelman Class Guide puts a fair bit of emphasis on Profession: Military, I'd...

    WWII spycraft

    It's a Shadowforce Archer supplement dealing with a villainous organisation that has some basis in WWII (Germany to be specific). Not all of it might be useful, but I think that you'll find some good information inside it.

    WWII spycraft

    If you're going to run stuff using WWII as the backdrop, I'd highly recommend Hand of Glory (especially as you mention that you'll be using the occult a little).

    Ultramodern Firearms Has Shipped!

    The information that I felt was contradictory was the same information I picked up on from the preview PDF (i.e., the details on the L85A1 (aka the SA80). As for "just go and reverse your stance", it wasn't an immediate reversal. After posting my original comments, I went and had a look in my...
