[QUOTE="Aus_Snow, post: 2472557, member: 29112"] I looked through those search listings. Thanks, but there wasn't a whole lot of use to me there, particularly in the case of India. I hadn't thought of searching the Directory though - it's another resource I'd forgotten. :o I know there's a [i]huge[/i] scope within the broad specs I originally posted. I thought it’d be better to keep it that broad because there'd probably be slim pickings anyway. . . which appears to be true, so far. I guess it's just a hankering of mine, to run something based on those areas in times past. . . probably with mythic (e.g. vedic) elements woven in - for extra spice, and frankly to tempt potential players. But to answer your questions, in order... I'm looking for RPG (hopefully d20) sources on China [i]and[/i] India, separately or together (with a preference for separately). And regions? Well, as comprehensive a coverage as possible would be good, in each case. In the end, I'll take nearly anything that's well written and usable. Sure, I could do this myself - [i]with a great deal of reading first[/i], [i]as my history is rusty and sports holes the size of entire subcontinents[/i] - but I was hoping someone had already done the 'legwork'. :heh: Oh, if Expeditious Retreat were to cover India or China (or even India-like or China-like), I'd readily hand over the dosh, as I quite like their books. :) [b]Ashanderai[/b]: LotJO looks promising. Count me as another who's interested in having a further look when you're finished writing it up. Arcana Unearthed (well, Evolved.. whatever) has been growing on me since picking it up earlier this year. Some of the mechanics (e.g. classes) could fit an Eastern feel very well, I think. [/QUOTE]
