I pretty much wrote it off when I got the D&D3 books in hand and tried to get through them. But there is so much really cool stuff coming out lately that I might just bite the bullet and dive back in. What I'm wondering (and I know that the answer will be "It depends" to some extent) is how interchangable the various versions of d20 really are. I know the intent was to have a common rule-set, but is it still working that way? Can I buy several products, dump them in a blender and pour out my own customized game? As an example can I take D20 Modern, mixed with Sidewinder: Recoiled, with a dash of the the new Steam and Steel, throw in D&D monsters, and have the whole mess work to run a game similar to the Wild Wild West movie meets the Forgotten Realms? Or am I in for a boatload of tweaking to get things to work together?</blockquote>
