    Microlite20 : the smallest thing in gaming

    Is there a separate macropedia entry for M20 modern rules? I didn't see anything specific about any 'modern' rules out there on the site.

    Microlite20 : the smallest thing in gaming

    Just popping in. I've followed bits of this from day 1 and left it for a while. Has anyone run this using modern rules? Are there any other conversions necessary? What about running low magic - a la Grim Tales, Conan, real world modern? I like the basic rules, with added (but completely...

    Still waiting for news about the future of d20 Modern

    Amen to that! I doubt anyone could do it better either! If you do, grab the guy who did the near-JOE stuff in Dungeon a while back and collaborate, that was a great article well worth expansion, even if you gotta file the 'JOE' serial numbers off the back.

    Still waiting for news about the future of d20 Modern

    I think d20M 1.5 would go over about half as well as D&D 3.5. Plenty of complaining, nobody wanting to buy more books, and considering d20m is such a small market of d20 as a whole, I see that as a failed venture. Honestly, I'd like to see D&D 4.0/d20m 2.0 be the same SRD, same system. Like GT...

    Can't wait! I will definately support the site more as more modern publishers come on board. Hint: RPGObjects - this means you guys

    [XRP] 2007 State of XRP Address

    Along that lines, i know that the intent isn't to 'copy' the other guy, but please make it just a tad easier to separate d20 products (d20 modern vs d20 Fantasy). it's the #1 reason i didn't shop at enworld...because i could never find what I wanted. Luckily the other guys have a full section...

    expanded Craft rules for low-magic settings

    Although for d20 Modern - Blood and Circuits is a pretty nifty craft based resource for weapons, armor, computers, and robots. Maybe not what you are looking for, but like Stormborn's book - would be a good place to start creating your own items from.

    Dangit Phil, call Steve up and get this thing going! Would be a Christmas MIRACLE. :)

    Fall of Man

    Ok, this comes up every few months, but I'm back to ask again. :) Who's doing MEG's Fall of Man, and when is it coming?

    Blood and Vigilance characters.

    Look through this forum, as Vigilance (Chuck Rice, author of said book) has posted some chars. There are a few NPCs scattered throughout the book, although you're looking to try before you buy. I'm sure Vigilance will show up here and post a few of his, he's pretty cool like that.

    Giant Crayfish

    Is it me or does the mantis shrimp picture in that wikipedia link look like a cat/zebra/lobster mix?

    Gun Fu One Shot

    Ability scores aren't the end all, be all of RPGs (IMHO). I'd rather make them more powerful by giving extra feats that are limited, but allows cool options. If you try the old Blood and Vigilance way, the 'Advanced Training' origin added some better stat bonuses, but also gave bonus feats...

    EN World GameStore Closing

    Some of you will probably lose a breath or possibly even have a heart attack hearing this from me (so if you're prone to that stuff, AND I've offended you before with my comments, please sit down, keep a glass of water and an asprin handy, and read with open eyes). That said, here's my response...

    EN World hombrewers...and I'm not talking about rules

    As far as I know, home distilling is not legal. But, there are plenty of site around if you look up homebrew distilling. Basically, they're just 'water purifiers' where you put more than water into it. Thanks for the advise. I was going to keep my beer in the primary pale for a week before...

    EN World hombrewers...and I'm not talking about rules

    So, after a friend introduced me to the hobby, today my roommate and I unofficially 'founded' our new brewery by brewing our first batch of homebrew red ale. We definately made a few mistakes, which is ok. (Relax. Don't worry. Have a homebrew.) Mistakes that should definately be fixed next time...

    Asian setting.

    I can't recommend Steampunk Musha enough. It might be a little much with steampunk fantasy, but it's got a great oriental feel. It runs on Iron Gauntlets, which I don't actually own, so I can't vouch for the system it relies on. I got it more for the fluff. I think it would be easy to...

    Finally got the new Ravenloft.

    I dug out the old I6 module, and after relooking at the maps, I don't think there's any loss in the maps from this book vs I6. The 2 page spread may seem odd, but wait until you get into an encounter there, and you can just flip to that room and go with all the maps and bad guy stats all in one...

    Thieves - does this sound fun to you? (please help)

    hrmm...if the crates of guns are so mysterious..why the heck are the guys transporting them not using that same weaponry? seems kinda dumb to be carrying around a load of guns armed with a crossbow. but I do like the ideas of bringing a little higher tech to ravenloft.
