Using Modern for Fantasy

[Viehl]

Has anyone here modified d20 Modern and used it for a fantasy campaign. If so, what did you do with the system to make it fit? And what made you decide to use Modern instead of D&D?

Not only do a run a campaign using a fantasy-ized D20M, but I have published the system and setting to high acclaim.

[Shameless Plug]
The DarkLore Campaign Primer is a 80 page introduction to the DarkLore world and a toolkit for low magic/dark fantasy using a new D20 variant based largely on D20M, but requires only the D&D books to run (i.e. you don't need to go out and buy D20M to play).

DarkLore has been nominated for a Gamewyrd award and has recieved high praise in many reviews. There's three 5star reviews here at ENWorld and an A- review at D20 'Zinerack.

Also, we're donating all our takings on this product to help support ENWorld and keep it running.

The DarkLore Campaign Primer is available from RPGNow for only $5.00 (look under D20 Fantasy/Campaigns)

Yes, I have done so, and thought it worked fine. All you really need to do is eliminate a few skills (drive, computer use, pilot, and possibly repair), a handful of feats, and create new occuptions. Why Modern instead of D&D? Because Modern is more generic, D&D is full of D&Disms.
