[QUOTE="Masada, post: 3034242, member: 19339"] If you are rock-solid in your understanding of d20 (either DnD or Modern), then Spycraft 2.0 will be exciting to you for its improvements on that system. Magic (i.e. spells) are not really defined in Spycraft yet. There are several magic system options available to d20 Modern that would all port pretty efficiently over to SC. I would encourage you to look over the magic systems in Modern Magic (by The Game Mechanics) or Blood & Relics (by RPGO) or Legends of Excalibur (also by RPGO) prior to defaulting to the WotC heavy magic standard. If immediate, out of the box playablity is more important, then d20 Modern with Urban Arcana (or just the MSRD of Urban Arcana) is your short term solution. If this is going to be your long term campaign, you have a fair amount of d20 experience and you're going to put some planning behind your world design, then SC. You can review the d20 MSRD for free of course, but SC is $50 for the book or $25 for the PDF. You can easily spend the same on the d20 Modern books and supporting material. [/QUOTE]
