[QUOTE="Apok, post: 569621, member: 1969"] I must say that, IMO, Spycraft is the superior of the two. True, it's not as generic as d20 Modern but it is still adaptable to things other than secret organizations, spygames, etc. I should know, since I'm running a GTA-style game using Spycraft. No secret organization and no spies; the PC's are basically criminals out to make a name for themselves. It's kinda like Quentin Tarentino D20. I haven't looked very closely at d20 Modern, but nothing about it really grabs me and says "Woah! This is amazing!" It's a generic d20 system game made for running in modern times. It has none of the flavor (and none of the righteously cool feats) that Spycraft does. True, if you wanted to integrate magic or psionics you will need to purchase some extra suppliments for Spycraft but I still think the base system is better and warrants the inconvenience. My only gripe is that noone has put out a d20 cybernetics suppliment (that I'm aware of) so I can't really do an effective Shadowrun conversion yet. Edit - Geeze, I forgot to even address the initial question... For a La femme Nikita style game, Spycraft is definitely the way to go. It fits that genre like a glove and encourages the players to do some really out-there stunts, which I like. [/QUOTE]
