This is my first time posting to the EN World d20 Modern boards and would like to introduce myself. You can all call me Vyv. I've been playing D&D for over 20 years. I've also had a strong interest in Shadowrun and Earthdawn.This is my first shot at a d20 Modern campaign and would like to get some feedback and ideas for the campaign I have in mind.I was thinking of how I could use the Incursion campaign setting (from Dragon #309, Dungeon #100 and Polyhedron #159?) in my next D&D campaign. In the context of the D&D campaigns I have run over the past 20 years, this idea seemed bland and overused. So I set the idea aside.I get alot of inspiration from movies and suddenly one of my favorites popped into my mind. "They Live" starring Roddy Piper. Suddenly the whole Incursion idea rushed forth again for my yet-to-be-used d20 Modern game. The gith in this campaign would try to take modern-day earth, not through massive troop movements, instead using subterfuge and incorporating themselves in our daily lives through deception and disguise. They use our media to subvert us with subliminal messages that turn us into overly-capitalistic zombies. Some people have seen through the lie and fight against the invaders.But how do I take this basis and turn it into a long-running campaign?I plan to take this campaign beyond the end result of the movie and use the adventure from Dungeon mag in one way or another. I also plan to get the characters involved in the beginning when they witness an apparent madman attacking an innocent person in public (a disguised githyanki, of course). But what can I do to fill the story between levels 1 and 18 (the suggested level for The Lich-Queen's Beloved)?Like I said, I would appreciate any feedback on my ideas so far and suggestions to help me bring this campaign to fruition. I apologize to those seeing this a second time, as I posted this topic on the Wizards boards also, but the traffic over there was very light.Thanks,Vyv</blockquote>
