Anyone know of a .pdf for D20 Modern that has new tanks and APC's like the LAV-150 Commando ? I was trying to do a d20 modern converions for Morrow project.

I would have recommended Alternate Realities Press and thier Big Bang Ricochet series, but they seem to be in a hiatus and are no longer listed as a manufacturer at RPGnow.com

Edit: Some of thier material is available at The Digital Book Booth

Some new vehicles appeared in Year of the Zombie (not really new, just stats of current military hardware that hadn't been statted before). Ralts is trying to create a vehicle construction resource, but the current d20 Modern vehicle stats is frustrating the hell out of him.

There are vehicle creation rules in Blood and Circuits, as well as some new tracked vehicles in the original Blood & Guts.

If you don't mind statting out the vehicles try d20 mecha from guardians of order, it has the rules for building them from scratch. They also have an online SRD around here somewhere.

That's why I use d20 Mecha for all my vehicle designs (and mecha, starship, PA etc.). So easy to use and its free (well the SRD is). I also use Blood & Circuits on ocassion, but more for personal stuff like armor, weapons and gear.

For some reason, the d20 Mecha rtf files from GoO like to go all corrupt-y when I try to open. I'm sure they're great rules, I just never get to find out.

Roudi,

I'd be happy to convert them to .doc or another fomart so you can look at them.

The Future Soldier's Battlefield Handbook has stats for tanks and apcs, amongst other things. They're designed for d20 Future but there are a few at PL5, which is ostensibly the modern era. I don't have a copy to hand but when I get home I'll post a list of relevant vehicles in there.

Ok, as promised, a list of relevant vehicles from the Battlefield Handbook. The PL6 vehicles are a little futuristic, but they're perfectly usable for modern day settings.

Blue Moon Scout Drone (PL5, one step on from the Predator)
Ambassador Armored Personnel Carrier (PL6, VIP APC)
Braja Assault Transport (PL6, VTOL special forces transport)
Orion Tank (PL6, main battletank)
Grey Phantom stealth bomber (PL6)
Black Shadow stealth tank (PL6)

There are more futuristic vehicles, but those are the PL5 and 6 ones that should be easily convertable to modern day equivalents. Certainly the stealth bomber, the orion tank and the APC are closely based on modern day equivalents.
