[d20 Modern] Metal Gear Solid: Foxhound Campaign

[Starwind]

I was thinking about running a d20 Modern campaign with a Foxhound type organization from Metal Gear Solid as the basis. If anyone has any ideas to throw in that's basically what I'm looking for. Something like stats for MGS weapons (Stinger Missile Launcher, SOCOM, FAMAS, Chaff Grenades, etc.) or Advanced Classes that would replicate the powers of Foxhound members (a Psyshic Class that emulates Psycho Mantis' powers, a Shaman class for Vulcan Raven, Sharpshooter for Sniper Wolf, etc). Stats for Metal Gears themselves. Anything like that. Hey, thanks!

I don't know if I'd use d20 Modern for this (though it can be done)
Rather, I'd use Spycraft. (but as that doesn't help your cause much, here's my take)

Stats for the weaponry used in Metal Gear Solid would be found in either UMF or alternatively d20WL.

However, if you don't have access to those books, or simply just want to use pre-existing stats (with the appropriate new flavour text) you could do the following. (and yes, I know that this isn't as accurate as some people would go...but it'd work as a simple conversion)

The SOCOM would be similar to a Colt Double Eagle (that has a laser pointer and silencer attached)
The FAMAS would be similar to a Styer (with an optical sight attached)

Not too sure about the missile launcher, or the chaff grenades (I'd have to look through MGS again, and its been a while)

Advanced Classes that I'd use.
Solid Snake - Soldier (fairly straight forward)
Sniper Wolf - use Gunslinger (but with the focus going towards a sniper rifle and get feats like shot on the run etc.)
Psycho Mantis -I would use the mind blade? from the Agents of Psi campaign detailed in the d20 Modern book.(I don't have my books with me so I can't be more specific)

To get further into details I'd have to go over the MGS stuff (and its been a few years) as well as have my d20 modern books in front of me.

Take a look at the Web Enhancement for Urban Arcana. The last two PrCs in the enhancement are the Sniper and Commando PrC. The latter requires you to take the Soldier AdC anyway, and fits Solid Snake quite well.

For Psycho Mantis, I would suggest using a modified version of the Telepath AdC. Doing the telekinesis trick that he did would be quite difficult within the rules, however, along with his ability to read your mind and then react to what you are going to do.

I ran a couple of Spycraft one-shots based on Metal Gear Solid. I've got the outline for a FOXHOUND Macro-Department that I may be able to finish up and post somewhere, but we'll see...

That'd be awesome Moridin, lemme know if you get around to that. Everyone else thanks for the suggestions too (and keep em comin' if you have em).
