I've not tried the D20 version yet, but it's meant to be good. I've played (published) campaigns where we've never really gotten into combat. When we have, it's a mark of failure and a sign that we've made a wrong turn and are probably going to get eaten by something with far too many tentacles.If you're after something investigatory and/or intrigue-ish those could be a good model to work from? Would probably work pretty well with the regular DnD ruleset... Some of the modules should convert nicely. Idle thought: If you like working from modules and enjoy conversion - "Horror on the Orient Express" module set on Eberron's railway. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />Just keep with the type of plots, NPCs and all the pretty handouts. I think this could be a lot of fun and very different from a normal campaign. Though, if you're really not keen on running it then I think you're dead right to get the player who suggested it to DM. IME, DM's running games they don't want to is a sure recipie for non-fun and will probably lead to 'burn out'.</blockquote>
