Modern Player's Companion from The Game Mechanics

[jaerdaph]

Anyone else pick up this new d20 Modern PDF product by Stan! today? So far, I'm really enjoying it - I've already got some ideas for some new NPCs.

Here's the link in case you have no idea what I'm talking about:

Not too shabby for only 5 bucks

I agree, the price is right. It's really cool. I plan to post my review of it when I get a spare moment.

And, as promised, here's the review.

Green Ronin is making a hard copy version if this? Sweet!

Nice review, Moridin! I just might get this . . .

Although, looking through the preview at RPGnow, I saw a feat called Self-Improvement that adds +1 to one ability. Uh, isn't this an epic feat in DnD? Or does it not stack with its self, that would be acceptable. Any more info on this?

It subtracts from another ability to make up for it.

Are they making a print copy of this for sure? If so, I may hold off on buying the electronic copy.

This has not been announced. However, given their first print product is a combination of two PDF products, I would be willing to wager that IF there is a print version, you won't see it until after the MPC2 comes out.

This product looks very nice at an initial quick read. Thanks to Stan! for the effort and Rodney for the early review.

Self-Improvement

Quick clarification - Self Improvement doesn't stack with itself, and it also doesn't reduce another stat - that feat is Cross-Training, which gives a bigger bonus but also a penalty. Self Improvement just gives a flat-out bonus.

You can also read my review of MPC - In short, 5/5!
