[QUOTE="jonas889, post: 609547, member: 9787"] [b]Realism in Modern.[/b] I think the simple plea of 'realism' in d20 Modern isn't asking for real life gaming but more towards realism as apposed to fantasy. Bugbears and elves have no decent place in a 'modern' setting, or at least they shouldn't. There are plenty of fantastic non-real things that have a modern feel that beholders and ogres just don't. I would like to see a monster manual with Modern monsters. Supernatural stuff can work. We still feel that ghosts are still around today, undead like Night of the Living Dead zombies or grotesque abonimations of Resident Evil and Silent Hill are 'modern' monsters we can deal with. When dealing with the occult and such in a modern setting fits into D20 more than giants and dragons. Aliens can also work. Couple of different alien types like your standard 'grey' Roswell stuff all the way to Preditor. I don't want to see magic like casting magic missile but I do want to see magic artifacts like the Ark of the Covenant from Raiders. Give me a Book of Lost, Ancient, and Occult Artifacts and I'm a happy camper. [/QUOTE]
