[QUOTE="ColonelHardisson, post: 163302, member: 363"] Duh. I forgot some more d20 stuff I'd like to see. Already mentioned: Black Company - oh yeah, this would be great. It wouldn't be that tough to do in 3e. The Company "tame wizards" would be mostly illusionists (Goblin & One-Eye, for examples) (along the lines of what Birthright did) or multiclassed characters, while the Taken (at least the original ones) would be either very high-level or even epic-level casters with a Taken template. Much of the rest of the setting could easily use D&D rules with little in the way of change. Ringworld - actually, a game base in Niven's "Known Space" in general would be great. What I've seen of Chaosium's Ringworld effort way back, maybe 20 years ago, looked very good, so the setting can be done very well as an RPG. The Ringworld itself could be the ultimate setting; remember how there was the huge ocean with life-sized "maps" of the planets in the Solar System? Maybe there could be more such "maps" in that ocean, where the PCs start out. Anyway, issue 50 of Dragon had an article converting Kzinti to AD&D. Worth checking out. Stuff not mentioned (or if it was, I missed it; sorry): d20 Dying Earth d20 Jack of Shadows d20 Amber d20 Conan (actually, just have Vincent Darlage get his Conan d20 site published) d20 Birthright (I've still to see a conversion I like) d20 Al-Qadim d20 Tekumel/Empire of the Petal Throne d20 King Arthur [/QUOTE]
