Does anybody have a d20 Modern Wealth to D&D GP conversion?

[skippy_the_witch]

Does anybody know of a conversion for the d20 Modern Wealth DCs to dollars (I can convert to GP or Credits from there)?

My homebrew is a pseudo-Post-Apocalyptic Technomagic 3.5 D&D game with a single large country (maybe china sized or so) which is civilized and half of the rest of the world being D&D with a Gamma World twist and the rest being the Taintlands (think a combination of LOTFR Shadowlands, Eberron Mournlands, and 1950s radioactive mutant hell). I am trying to create rules for a Technomagic society, including building of gadgets and gizmos, and already use Pepetrated Press's ARSENAL and FACTORY, Monte Cook's CHAOSITECH, and some other sources. I want to add much of the material from d20 Modern and d20 Future SRD, much have no plans to use the Wealth system.

Thanks,

I've got an Excel that contains Purchase DC's from 1-100 and the dollar equivalents. Email me if your interested at sean.silvamiramon (at) gmail dot com

Grim Tales has a nice table converting Purchase DCs to GP, and Wulf Ratbane was kind enough to post an Excel spreadsheet that does the calcs for you:

I haven't used it /too/ much, but it seems to work fine in my limited experience.

Would you mind posting the formula you used to build the spreadsheet? I'd be curious to see the methodology.

I'm afraid there really isn't a formula that I used. It was an extrapolation of Table 7-1, page 204 in D20 Modern and Table 7-16, page 145 in D20 Future

According to Mr.Gygax's World Builder [book] by Troll Lord Games

$1 is roughly equivalent of 5cp
$10 is roughly the equivalent of 5sp
($100 is roughly the equivalent 5gp)
$500 is roughly equivalent 25gp.

This is largely due to the established rate of exchange in d20 is where a gold coin is only ten times more valuable than a silver one.

This is from the PHB: (page 70 under the craft skill; fourth paragrapgh, last sentence) Untrained laborers and assistants earn an average of one silver piece per day.

Understanding that most commoners in a standard dnd game (Greyhawk being standard) are untrained, everything above makes sense.
