[QUOTE="Karl Green, post: 1715840, member: 1467"] I am another guy who played ShadowRun for years and years (mostly 2nd ed but had a pretty long 1st ed game with some house rules and a short 3rd ed game). In the end, while I still REALLY love the world, I am totally turned off by the rules. As I heard it once described as, my problems with ShadowRun was that it was 5 different systems that did not fit well together. I think that you could totally make ShadownRun for d20 if you wanted. I think that I would FIRST get Grim Tales, which I would use for the basic system. No real AdC at all, just the basic ones. Keep it open and lose. What to be a Spellcaster, take the Magical Aptitude Talent Tree and some of the Magical Feats. You could start casting Magic at first level but it would be dangerous. I would suggest that Magic cause "non-lethal" damage Burn, but over casting, etc. could cause Lethal damage or Attribute Drain. Cyberwear examples are listed there also. They have a Ranking, so MAX that you can use for Essence (and it would give you Spell Resistance say 5 +cyber rank vs. Healing and other beneficial spells). Certain Talent Trees could be resistant to Physical Adapts, etc. It would not be very hard at all, and I have thought about it, unfortunately I have like 5 other game ideas bouncing around in my head ALL thinks I really want to do (right now at the top of my list is a D20F Bug Hunters game or an Ebrrone fantasy game or a Warhammer fantasy using the rules from either Grim Tales or Conan) [/QUOTE]
