Hey looks good so far... ok here are some notes that look over...
Armor – OK I am just going to go with the way Armor is presented in the basic Rules. ONE thing I am adding is that the Nonproficiency Armor Bonus is given a bonus to your Reflex saves vs. Autofire. More then likely, your characters will be assigned either a Light Duty Vest, Tactical Vest, or if requested an Undercover Vest. SECOND thing that I am going to add, I want “modern” armor to be a little better then Archaic, so increase the Max DEX bonus by one and decrease the Armor Penalty by one for all Modern Armor (so an Undercover Vest will now have a Max DEX of +6 and Penalty of –1; a Light Duty Vest will have a Max DEX of +4 and a Penalty of –3; while a Tactical Vest will have a Max DEX +3 and Penalty of –4).
Action Points... I am going to say you have the Max for your level right now and no more. I like the Eberron idea where those are your MAX, because I will award additional AP doing the game. I think a couple of you have to correct that. I want to encourage people to use them as they ‘renew’ when you go up a level and I will be awarding them often.
Wealth is not something we will worry to much about as the military supplies you most of your stuff. BUT I will give you a basic level after I see your characters. Reputation is something that we will eventually use more of so you should record that right now also.
Prestige Classes from the Urban Arcane Web enhancer are fine with me, but correct no one is going to be able to be one yet.
Classes from normal 3.5D&D. I will work out something for some of the classes to be Advanced Classes, but after thinking about it I agree that we should not mix them up to much. SOOO for those who are thinking about playing 'strangers' from the other side, we will have to figure out what to on a case-by-case bases. If you want to play an Artifactor from Eberron, I will figure out an Advance Class path and we can discuss it to see if it fits your ideas. OR if someone wants to play a Warforged Warrior who will eventually be a Juggernaut (which is a Prestige Class anyway) I will figure that out also. Spell lists for spellcasters will be from the normal D&D and Modern. I do like the way the Mage and the Acolyte are presented in D20 Modern and I will model any Advance Class this way.
Psionics - I was thinking that I might prefer to leave them out BUT if people are interested in them I can consider them. I would prefer just the Telepathic class, maybe the Battle Mind and Agent from UA.
Who all is considering "strangers"? It looks like 3 people so far. Might be a few more then I wanted but I might be able to handle that. You should start thinking about why your character would be willing to work for these Earthers (as there are Humans on the otherside), and what you bring to make them willing to work with you.
Last but not least, if someone wishes to take a level or so in Slayer (I would prefer no more then ONE player) you will have something physical as evidence, that also helps you. It might be a minor magical item. Also if someone where to play the Occultist (and I might prefer the Civilian character to have this role) you will have a couple of extra scrolls that were ‘recovered’ from the last mission along with some other ‘minor’ magical items that we will go into later.
Anyway looking over the characters they look GREAT so far. I hope someone wants to play the Civilian type but I am not going to make anyone
