Mini-D20 Genres in Poly

[JoeGKushner]

My group played that mini-game repeatedly. Perhaps because we like to deviate from too many D&D sessions. We didn't want to burn out on D&D so we take a break and use other d20 games.

Now this is an interesting point. Playing another d20 game because of being burnt out, or not wanting to get burnt out, on fantasy.

I find that I get burnt out on the system more than I do the genre and swtich systems in genre just more often then the game system like Rolemaster or Warhammer FRPG. How about others?

Honestly, I'd rather they ran adventures for other genres, more than new genres of game.

I couldn't care less about d20 cheerleading, so voted for genres that stack easily on D&D.

Yep, ditto on that sentiment exactly.

If Poly includes more stuff like Incursion (heck, I considered that an entire "Monstrous Arcana" on Githyanki!) and Spelljammer, I'd be waiting with bated (is that right?) breath for my next issue of Poly, not just Dungeon.

Same with me. Add that to the fact that, IMO, d20 only does genres that have little to no technology well, and if I'm getting tired of D&D (for me, the entire "fantasy" genre), I'll jump to another system entirely to fit the brand new genre that I want.

That would be cool. Very cool, actually -- they could run d20 Modern (and later, Future) adventures, the occasional d20 CoC scenario, Star Wars d20, WoT, etc. There are already lots of options, even just sticking with the WotC stable.

I also think this is a good idea. I do like the new mini-games on a fairly regular basis, but it would be equally cool to see the old ones supported. Speaking of which, I made use of Omega World over the 4th of July Weekend. I went back to my hometown and got together with some old friends of mine and had an awesome one-shot adventure. I love the post apocalyptic genre. Kudos Poly!

Joe,

This poll really needs to be multiple choice..

I for example like fantasy & pulp (which IMO includes IloJ), and I could deal w/ a few modern ones as well like say Dark Matter, or a cold-war era espionage game.

Yet I can't pick "all types" cause I abhor stuff like Mecha-Crusade, and the utterly make me wanna puke Hijinx & Cannonball Run like garbage.

I'd like to see further support for Pulp, but I'd rather see it as a hardcover campaign setting book for D20 modern ala UA

Guess I'll vote fantasy.

I'd love to see that too.

I'd really like to see Poly expand on some of the d20 mini games they've already published too.

 

[Ranger REG]

Would love to see more MECHA CRUSADE material as well as GeneTech material.

Not a poll choice, but - I want mini games with rules that I can port over to my D&D game. Incursion was awesome. Give us more Polys like that!
