Critical hits are quite altered for instance (requiring an Action Die to activate, rather than a confirmation roll) - In Spycraft armour actually lowers your Defence (AC renamed, as it has nothing to do with armour), but gives you DR. Which is how I always imagine armour should work (I can't recall if hitting medium/heavy load also lowers your Defence at the moment, but I assume so).If you are serious about switching to W/VP I'd recommend it, it won't integrate with modern without a lot a work, but IMHO it's the best instance of W/VP in d20 (available in .pdf on DriveThruRPG & RPGNow!, if you don't want to fork out for a dead tree version).Slotting into Modern shouldn't be too bad, as at least Defence bonuses are already in play, in D&D it's just messy, as to make it work right (assuming you're switching to armour as DR as well) you've got to give classes a Def bonus and then the classes have to be rebalanced etc.</blockquote>
