[QUOTE="haiiro, post: 890020, member: 1891"] The best resource for d20 CoC is the wealth of good BRP CoC material that's already out there. The mechanics are different, but the tone and themes are the same. If you're in the market for scenarios, I'd recommend trying out some of the compilations -- things like Mortal Coils and The Resurrected III: Out of the Vault (both from Pagan Publishing), or older books like Great Old Ones (from Chaosium, long OOP but can be found). Chaosium has started releasing dual-stat material (with everything statted out for both systems; H.P. Lovecraft's Dunwich and H.P. Lovecraft's Arkham are the first two such products, but neither is a good place to start if you're new to the game), but there's also a conversion guide to help with the older stuff. The conversion guide comes with the d20 CoC Gamemaster's Pack, which also includes a 3-panel screen, errata, an adventure, etc. (you can read about it on Chaosium's website: [url]http://www.chaosium.com/cthulhu/d20cthulhu/8801.shtml[/url]).
