[QUOTE="HeapThaumaturgist, post: 2840515, member: 12332"] I will say there's a portion at the back of the book for "tweaking" the game to do different genres. From Western to Horror. There's various "settings" that they talk about. But it just didn't "catch" me. Which is odd, I like tweaking settings. I could be something as simple as Archetypal classes vs. Basic classes. Or WP/VP vs. HP. The tone was just off. I tried doing a few things with it, like a western, but I couldn't shake the superspies thing. A Wheelman on a horse is still a Wheelman, even if he can get "more shot" or can't pick up a Bag Full Of Guns on his way out the door. It didn't feel "Westerny". I aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaalmost ran a Dark*Matter game with it. They both have, y'know, agents and stuff. Seemed like a pretty good fit. But in the end we did d20Modern because I was the only one who had the SC2.0 book and the others were grumpy about learning a new system. --fje [/QUOTE]
