[QUOTE="The Black Kestrel, post: 5065027, member: 4903"] As an author of one of those what to fix in d20 Modern threads, I thought I'd chime in with a couple of thoughts. Class system. While I like the six classes themed around the ability scores, they need some improvement. Which segues nicely into my next set of problems: Skills/Skill Points. 4 per class level minimum. Skill consolidation is required as well. BAB. Another good BAB class is needed (Tough Hero gets my vote). I also agree that the +0 BAB is an issue. I say fractional BAB is probably the best fix, but a more elegant way is needed to explain it. Feats. More feats per level (every level ala Pathfinder works). Consolidation of some feats as well as more ranged feats that are weapon neutral (thinking of a couple of the PF ranges feats like Deadly Aim). Talents. Talents are BLAND! SWSE set the new standard for talent design. Occupations. Occupations need more feats. This would help solve some of the problems associated with starting characters not feeling heroic enough/not being able to accomplish what the player wants. [/QUOTE]
