Message: <blockquote data-quote="Arc" data-source="post: 941127" data-attributes="member: 12184">I've used the Spycraft Action Die system, but I don't know about the d20 Modern action point system. In case you're unfamiliar, Spycraft action points basically work like this:Characters get 3 action dice per session. For levels 1-5, action dice are d4s. For levels 6-10, action dice are d6s. Levels 11-15, action dice are d8s. Levels 16-20, action dice are d10s.Action dice can be spent at any time to add to a die roll, and a character can spend as many as he/she wants. Also, instead of rolling to confirm a critical, a character spends an action die to confirm it (dunno if you want to keep this rule, works better in a vitality/wound point system, because crits go straight to wounds, so they're very powerful). Action dice can also be used to confirm critical errors on NPCs (1s on a die roll)The GM has 3 d12s as action die, and can use them in the same way as characters can. When a GM gives a character an extra action die, he gains one himself.So far, the system works out quite well. You might want to tweak it to work better with DnD though (suggestion: get rid of the confirm crit/error rule, because crits/errors aren't quite as deadly as in Spycraft)</blockquote>
