Message: <blockquote data-quote="Krizzel" data-source="post: 701312" data-attributes="member: 9062">d20 Modern in and of itself is a great game, IMO.  It's still the d20 system though, so there's nothing very radical (still a feat every 3rd level, for example).I think the base classes are wonderful - these are really what make the system for me.  Odd levels give you a 'talent,' which is like a special ability from 3e (uncanny dodge, fast movement, etc.).  Even levels provide a bonus feat from that class' list.  Also, every character also chooses an occupation which provides a number of lifetime bonus class skills (they're always class skills, no matter what levels you take) and possibly a bonus feat.This is great if you like building your character out of a set of abilities (multi-classing is the norm - there are no penalties for it).  If you like a single class that perfectly describes your character, then it's probably something you won't enjoy.  Definitely worth a look at the SRD though - there's a lot of little ideas you can mine even if you don't like d20 Modern as a whole (Profession skill and Wealth bonus might be portable, for example).</blockquote>
