Just curious has anyone ever tried running shadowrun using D20 modern?
I have been coming up with conversions for my group to give the D20 modern game a shadowrun like feel but it has been alot of work. I scrapped the D20 magic system, and used a modified Psionics system from 3.5 Modified their cybernetics system from future and Cyberscape. Also used some modified armor rules, and tweaked out the mass damage rule from D20 modern to make it more gritty and make armor more realistic. and last but not least I made several new feats... example Awakened Caster, and Awakened adept which had to be taken at first level. and only Awakened Characters could use magic items. I did this because we have 2 hardcore D20 fans in the group and while they like shadowrun They said they would like it better with different rules. We have 5 players total including me. I have been Running the campaign now for over a year. Anyway Seeing if anyone else has attempted this? If so how did it go? and If anyone likes i could post some of the conversions i have done here. Would like to also see any conversions others might have used. The hardest conversion to do is reworking their VR (matrix rules)... their VR rules seem fairly well done but it feels like everyone is a TM... so I have been trying to come up with comlinks and comlink stats... and keep their normal rules for TMs.. Anyway I guess thats it now, would love to see some feedback, or responces |
