Don't forget that if the item in question is revised and it sucks in the PG, you can use it "as is." I don't think Rich Baker will mind ;)

There's a decent Alternity-to-d20 conversion of the Dark*Matter Campaign Setting located at this site: http://wingsandsword.home.insightbb...ion_project.htm

The MIB RPG by WEG was actually d6 System, not Masterbook. I have the introductary boxed set. If you have MIB, you can dig around WoTC's website for the conversion rules that JD Wiker made up for converting Star Wars d6 to d20. That should work fine.

Make Polyhedron a separate d20 magazine to support non-D&D d20 material, like Star Wars, d20 Modern, Call of Cthulhu, Spycraft, etc. Make Dungeon separate and keep Dragon separate, but move all Living Greyhawk material to Dragon (where it rightfully belongs).

Someone did a Alternity-to-d20 conversion of the D*M Campaign Setting book: http://wingsandsword.home.insightbb.com/darkmatter_to_d20_conversion_project.htm

Advanced classes: Antiquinarian and Field Guide Prestige Classes: Diabolist, Hermetic Adept, Visionary, Xenoengineer Suggestions on what creatures to use from d20 Modern, Urban Arcana and the Menace Manual. It's mostly campaign setting info and guidelines. Not much crunch.

I took your advice and purchased a secondhand copy of the original D*M book (I found it used via Amazon.com). I think that combined with the mini-game, d20 CoC, and the d20 Modern rules, this has the potential to be a great campaign. I'm in the process of converting the characters (using JD...

If you want to play a Star Wars RPG, it's the only one on the market right now.

I couldn't agree more. One of my players' has a character with two nickel-plated Desert Eagles. There's no mechanics involved, but it sounds cool.

Ammo capacity is given in SWRPG, but like d20 Modern, you don't have to count it if you don't want to. It's not like WOTC is going protest.

That's pretty much the way it is in the Star Wars RPG: holdout blaster, blaster pistol, blaster rifle, repeating blaster rifle....and slugthrower.

Tarril, what are the level progressions for Defense Bonus for each class? Does the book address figuring Defense Bonus for new/other classes not covered in Unearthed Arcana?

How does Defense bonus work? I know that d20 Modern and Star Wars both use this. Does the book outline how Defense bonus is derived for each class? ditto for Armor Damage Reduction.

I'm trying to figure out how to convert a AD&D 2E Forgotten Realms NPC. It is "Minder" from the old DC/TSR Forgotten Realms comic. In the 2E stats, she's a 10th Level Dwarven Fighter whose spirit resides in the body of an iron golem. In D&D 3.5, would she retain some of the Dwarven traits...

Best: Feats (great way to customize your character) Worst: Energy Drain attack (still sucks 1, 2, 3, 3.5 editions later.)

There's a race in the D&D Miniatures Handbook called "Catfolk" that seems to fit the bill.

The article was well-written, but like most of the mini-game articles, it left me wanting more. I never had the Dark*Matter book, but I was wondering if it would be worthwhile to own a copy. Incidentally, JD Wiker put together a conversion document for Alternity/Dark*Matter to d20 Modern. You...

D&D Unearthed Arcana (Feb '04) is supposed to have an alternative magic system. The book is Open Content.
