A Post-Apocalyptic Future?For a lot of campaigns the answer is NOT now, and every campaign I mentioned has a campaign setting at RPGNow right now except one. And if your answer is now, is there FX in the game? Is it the high, Buffy-esque FX found in Urban Arcana and Shadow Chasers? Or is it the lower FX found in Blood and Relics or in the 12 to Midnight Pinebox setting. Or perhaps a supers game?Even if the campaign uses FX, an Urban Arcana book isnt terribly suitable for Blood and Relics of the Pinebox setting. Even if we agree that there is no FX, is it an investigation heavy campaign set in the states where the players play police officers or is it a military campaign where the players jet-set all over the world?Cmon Reg. There is SO much variety to d20 Modern. It's a strength imo... but for everything you gain in a game's design, you give something up. And one thing the more open design of d20M has done is made it harder for players to agree on a general setting "tone" like they have with fantasy games. Which in turn makes adventures an even harder sell than normal.</blockquote>
