I thought of another game I'd like to see converted.  Mechwarrior d20.  I always loved the Battletech universe (at least the early years up to and including the Clan Invasion... got kinda crazy after that).  The FASA system seemed "forced" to make it mesh with the Battletech rules.  They weren't that bad but with d20 you'd make Mech combat an extension of man sized combat rules rather than the other way around.  It really wouldn't be that hard to do... may have to work that up myself.  <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=":-)" /></blockquote>
