That would be really useful, esp. when combined with some of the psi and magic rules from d20 Modern. I'd like to see them make a stab at a Native American shaman/spiritspeaker Advanced Class.

As it is something else I can throw into my StarGate campaign, A western minigame would be cool.

I'd love to see a portable setting for Steampunk games.
I pretty much have one written, but it's always nice when someone else does all that hard work and typing and art for you!
I mean, I'm paying for the magazine, and I think Poly is an awesome value for the price.
I'm also guessing that most if not all of the Poly games we see in the future will be based off of D20 Modern as opposed to D&D D20, as D&D pretty much covered fantasy, and most other settings are more "modern" than fantasy.

Actually, there will be a balance between d20 and d20 Modern mini-games. After all, the past mini-games managed to present some non-medieval fantasy genres prior to the release of d20 Modern. In fact, the latest, V is for Victory, is a d20 mini-game.

There's no possible way that anyone will guess the next mini-game. It's VERY "out there." By far the biggest departure we've done so far, and possibly the biggest departure I've seen yet so far as d20 and the OGL are concerned. Every year, I'd like to do one game that "stirs the pot" a little in terms of genre. The d20 System is incredibly versatile, and mixing up genres is one way to prove that while providing something people haven't seen before.
You haven't seen the next mini-game before.
More on that when I've got a final name for it and when we have some visuals to show you. The game's not going to work without kick-ass visuals.
After that we'll interrupt the normal flow (mini-game/no mini-game/mini-game) with a special surprise that ties into some ads that have run in Dragon and Dungeon recently. No more on that until later. I don't want the Paizo Pirates cutting out my tongue.
After _that_ it looks like two (at least) d20 Modern games in a row (with a grab-bag small issue between them). I've got three or four other games percolating beyond that, but they're too far off to even hint about, yet.
Oh! Since the Godlike cartoon ended last issue, the one we're finishing now has a new cartoon-- "Downer," by art director Kyle Hunter, is the life story of a slacker drow dungeon guard. It's suitably "Polyhedron" for my tastes, and I think you guys are going to really dig it.
