In some ways, this book isn't exactly what I expected (for example, I was under the impression there would be equipment lists by era), and in other ways, it is more than what I expected. I really like how the d20 Modern basic classes were expanded out to 20 levels. The new talent trees are also very cool - the list is greatly expanded from those found in d20 Modern, and let you do things like Turn Undead snatch arrows and deflect bullets, and cast magic spells. I also like the idea of advanced talents.One thing I didn't see that I was looking forward to based on some character's in Wulf's LXG Story Hour - the Paranormal Adept. There are rules for Arcane, Divine and Wild Adepts, but not Paranormal Adepts. Anyhow, more later...</blockquote>
