    D20 Modern - What are your house rules?

    If I ever play again: No Move/Standard actions. You just get two half actions. Using the adj/verb backgrounds from Spycraft 2.0 Probobly a ton of feats from Spycraft 2.0... maybe even just use their feats and drop d20 Moderns versions of the feats. Use D&D or Spycraft 2.0's non-lethal...

    Creating a Scroll, Potion or other item and Min. Time

    Ahh, I didn't catch that minimum of 1 day part, only the part in the actual section for each type of item. The multiple spells on a scroll is a nice approach, obviously limited by money. Normally you'd be limited by the readied spells you have - as it says when you scribe the spell, your...

    Creating a Scroll, Potion or other item and Min. Time

    I'm sorry if this is a common question or is simple. I've run D&D 3.0 since the PHB came out and Never had a player want to make items. I've never wanted to make items either. Now I'm an Artificer and this is my deal, so I'm trying to get a handle on what I can/can't do. A level 0 spell...

    Infusion questions (Artificer)

    So you're asking how many infusions can be cast into a single object and if that object is a Warforged if that number is different. I'm pretty sure, but not positive, that you can only place one infusion per object. It may not be spelled out and it may have only been a suggestion in that keith...

    [Eberron] What Craft Choices Should an Artificer make?

    Ok, thanks for putting that out there. For the Hermuculi (in the ECS book) there was a basic Hermuculi stat block and then a breakdown by specific type. I must have been reading the basic block. For rings, you say that Forge Ring is required for magic rings, but isn't Craft: Jewlry also...

    [Eberron] What Craft Choices Should an Artificer make?

    I don't have my 3.0 books with me, just d20SRD.org and the Eberron Campaign Setting. d20SRD.org doesn't mention any suggestions for Craft. Eberron just makes mention of you having to have the proper craft skill or hiring someone out to make the item and you enchant it. Weapons -->...

    Give me the complete picture: WP/VP

    It doesn't matter what exactly the person is doing. It could just be a guy standing at a corner waiting for a light to change, an enemy agent working at a terminal across the room or an evil mastermind washing his favorite pet while whistling to herself. The point is how do you explain that...

    Give me the complete picture: WP/VP

    So you have to explain to players that their hits won't hit the opponent. I understand the concept, but it's something that doesn't sit well with a bunch of players. I could even logically explain it that they're basically allowed to dodge the bullet by getting out of the way and taking VP...

    Give me the complete picture: WP/VP

    Really? To me, guns are the largest thorn in the side of the VP/WP system. melee weapons & punches & falls can be explained as glancing blows, bruises, scratches, scrapes, etc. When you get to guns, especially in a game where guns are very prominant, how do you continiously explain how guns...

    Give me the complete picture: WP/VP

    WP/VP is actually 95% the same mechanic as HP are in D&D, only spelled out for easier reference. When you're a level 10 Fighter with 70 HP, your body isn't really as physically resiliant as a piece of Iron or a tree, you're still human. Only a smaller fraction of your HP is actual honest to...

    Anyone have D20 Cyberscape?

    They had it at the gaming store I played at tonite. It looked like a normal d20 Modern Genre suppliment. Overpriced for a very slim book. I did a cursory flip through about 8 pages before I realized I just wouldn't care, then sat down to start our Spycraft 2.0 game for the evening.

    Spycraft 2.0 is awesome!

    Almost. They get a minimun success (barely squeaking by) if they fail their check, but do not get an error and the TN is 20+level or less. They can still fail, it's just that odds are the Hacker class will be able to basic hacks more than half of the time. Basically these class abilities have...

    Spycraft 2.0 is awesome!

    What are these cards you speak of? I know init hasn't slowed down any from normal d20 iniative. We have a battlemat before combat we write down everyone's names and their iniative score. If someone does an action that modifes init, either they "X" off their old score and put the new score on...

    Why I'm sticking with d20 Modern (instead of Spycraft 2.0)

    I thought about the same exact thing... just making my own OGL RPG made up of my favorite parts of different RPGs. Just for myself/my group and toss it online as a free download or something. Unfortunately since SC2.0 came out, it's practically 95% SC2.0 and I wouldn't really gain anything by...

    Why I'm sticking with d20 Modern (instead of Spycraft 2.0)

    What I like a little bit better than the NPC creation is the fact that the Mission Guidelines work out perfectly into a quick 'n dirty checklist for any system and experience. There isn't any reason (that I can see yet, aside from taste) that you couldn't just drop the whole CR thing in D&D...

    OGC Wiki (merged)

    You seem to imply that you chop up rules peacemeal. That would render the Wiki relatively useless. For example, a few feats from Spycraft 2.0 arn't very balanced. You really need them all or you have a lopsided Feat array. Now most the feats won't make sense as they apply to rules specific to...

    OGC Wiki (merged)

    If you mention where the rules came from, you're indicating compatability. For the sake of the OGL liscense, there is no real difference between using Open Content to write another book, post online, stripmine mechanics (which is basically what this is) or making a computer application (not...

    OGC Wiki (merged)

    I think thats required in the copywrite notice, but you can't advertise it. Like you can't have links to the True20 OGC. True20 is owned by Green Ronin and you can't claim compatability with it for any derrived works, which this would technically be. Well you can't claim compatability even with...

    Guide for Creating 3e races...

    BESM d20 has a point buy d20 which includes races. If their site was up I'd say to check out the BESM d20 SRD. maybe it's floating around on google or one of those archive sites or something
