[QUOTE="Voadam, post: 4444048, member: 2209"] Agreed. Applying the advancement rules templates or creating a whole monster from scratch is a cumbersome process. Making it easier would be a benefit. Definitely a useful approach. Definitely. Foe Factory Modern is based off of Spycraft NPC minion rules. I have never seen Spycraft but I picked up Foe Factory for use in my D&D games. It provides bullet stats for creating quick foes with the numbers tied to the Average PC level of the party. So instead of providing sheets of 25 levels of CR you get one set that is easy to update to the appropriate CR you want. It shows how to get different flavors of foes through the numbers whether you want mooks, brutal tough guys, quick assassins, bricks, etc. It is a much quicker foe creation system than standard d20. It also provides various single powers with fractional CR increases, you just round off at the end to get the end CR. The downside is it is tailored for modern games so there is less spellcasting baddy stuff and it is designed to balance around guns and other d20 baseline assumptions.
