I'm kind of partial to the original set: law, chaos, and neutral.

It's an interesting option and it leaves the door open for a 4e style defender mechanic for those that want one.

I'm about three years too old for the poll. I'm sort of a cheat, since I've been making an effort to read some of the pulp fantasy that originally inspired D&D. I've read a little of Leiber, Howard, Rowling, Jordan, Pratchett, and Brooks; and I've read more of Tolkien and Moorcock. I've meant...

I don't think it would be too difficult to do. Take the Warlock class and the appropaite classes from your D&D of choice; then use the later as a template to rewrite the former. The Warlock attacks like a cleric, saves like a magic-user, and has thief HD. There are some invocations that...

For me, the setting's backstory is kind of bland. I think it has to do with the use of generic terms (like the City). Making your terminology a little more specific might make it more interesting to me. I have no problem getting into the setting's present. Sure, I'd like to hear more about it...

Eightfold Eightfold By Kevin Crawford Eightfold takes place six-hundred years after the fall of a magical civilization. The PCs are Servitors, the heirs to what's left of that civilization's magical tradition, trying to make their way in a fallen world of savage wilderness, warring...

I think the Conunction is a success, even if there isn't a winner. Thanks for starting it and giving me a much needed kick in the pants. I hope your health improves.

The Awakening I'm trying to reread all of the other entries and write something about them. Forgive me if they're a little on the skeletal side. The Awakening By David S. Percival I like the setting. It strikes a nice balance between focus and openness. After the world falls under a mystic...

I was planning on working an expanded version of Deep Black anyway. So, I would be game for the second draft idea. Here's what I've been thinking about for Deep Black (in no particular order): 1) A section about various locations in the US along with two or three rumors for each location that...

Thanks for the critiques Jack and Cardinal you both gave me some interesting things to mull over when I expand Deep Black. I got the chance to play test the game myself, but I wasn't able to get play test information from other people. One of my major goals for an expanded version is to see...

I am interested in seeing what you come up with.

Yeah, the book's a little over a decade older than I am, though some of the materials I used to get myself excited about the project* are older. * Mostly early Alfred Hitchcock films and episodes of The Prisoner.

Thanks. I was thinking about those old studies into remote viewing and psychic phenomenon when I started working on the project. I have this great book Psychic Discoveries Behind the Iron Curtain that probably should have reread while I was working on the game.

The convoluted talents are one of my least favorite things about d20 Modern. It's hard to remember how they work and they tend to allow a saving throw with a low DC to avoid the effect, which limits their usefulness.

Deep Black Here’s the Great Conjunction edition of Deep Black for your consideration. In this game you play ex-CIA spies that have gained magic powers after participating in a government run experiment. It’s a mix of espionage, crime drama, and surrealism. It’s also something I wouldn’t have...

I had a lot of fun running the Agents of PSI setting from the d20 Modern corebook.

I've been working on Deep Black, a game of ex-CIA officers with magic powers trying to change the future. Right now I'm working on getting it proofed, so it should be ready by Saturday.

Fans of Naruto might want to take a look at 666 Satan (aka O-Parts Hunter in America) by Seishi Kishimoto (twin brother Naruto creator Masashi Kishimoto). It's interesting comparing the similarities and differences in their styles and characters.

Most of the fights in my last game were with guns, melee weapons, and later on psi-blades. I did use one NPC that focused on nonlethal fighting and he worked out well.

I spend most of my roleplaying time running table top and MET (or rather my own larp system which is vaguely like MET). I have recently started getting interested in a boffer weapon game as well.
