Must-play modern/future or horror adventure

[talien]

Oh yeah, my latest obsession is combining CthulhuTech with Starship Troopers. I didn't realize Starship Troopers was OGL-based (and thus d20 compatible). The original source of "bug hunts" so to speak.

CthulhuTech + Starship Troopers would look a lot like the d20 Future campaign model "Dark Heart of Space". There's also echoes of it in a line of the Serenity movie, where Kaylee tells Jayne a theory for the origins of the Reavers:

"Shepherd Book said they was men who just reached the edge of space, saw a vasty nothingness, and went bibbledy over it."

Replace "vasty nothingness" with "elder god" or "Azatoth" and you're set.

Our own Last Rites of the Black Guard, Skinwalker, or Bloodlines are fantastic adventures in modern horror with great reviews, art, handouts, and even some spooky mp3s on our website.

We also have some freebie adventures. Good luck and have a horrific time.

The very best sci-fi horror game I ever played was "Dark Space" by Monte Cook for Rolemaster 2Ed. Lets see, you have ...aliens, undead space pirates, bio-grafts, hi tech, swords and the Vthlacna (sp?) which were Cthulhu's illegitimate step children. If you have Rolemaster, then I would suggest checking it out.

Starship Troopers is OGL?

I did not know that!

I have Dark Space, it is incredible for source materials.

I and others have done several short adventures in the Modern Dispatch, both for Modern and Sci-fi.

I'd also like to recommend Dawning Star for some cool, D20 compatible sci-fi with good background and many options.
