[QUOTE="The Shaman, post: 2458185, member: 26473"] I love d20 [i]Modern[/i] like a fat kid loves Little Debbies, for many of the reasons that others don't: the modularity of the base classes, the lack of a strong setting, the toolkit approach of most of the supplements (save the execrable d20 [i]Past[/i]). Moreover I have no problem with hit points (MDT = 10 + damage if I want to increase the level of lethality - no VP/WP graft required, thanks!) or combat in the rules as written - I'm looking for fast adventure, not exacting detail that I can add in or take out through flavor description as desired. While I've gladly filched a few very good bits from [i]Spycraft[/i] Lyte for my Modern games, I don't see making a wholesale system change anytime soon, if for no other reason than I'm just not willing to spend the money when I can happily play with what I have now. I can build pretty much any game I want to play using d20 [i]Modern[/i] as written, from gritty military to modern fantasy to near-future sci fi to swashbuckling past, and I don't have to spend another dime to do it.
