Fallout goes d20


aVENGER

Recommended Posts

GCG has acquired a license from Interplay to produce a line of Fallout (pen and paper) products.  Our first product will be a Fallout d20 modern OGL Player's Handbook.  Products that will follow will be a campaign guide and a organization companion guide.  Our first product is planned for release this fall.

I don't get it. An obscure, fairly unknown company gets the license to do this and they instantly manage to screw it up by going with the d20 route. Bah...

Any attempt to remove SPECIAL from Fallout will result in disaster. This will probably do even worse than the d20 version of Call of Cthulhu.

DISCLAIMER: Do not take what I write seriously unless it is clearly and in no uncertain terms, declared by me to be meant in a serious and non-humoristic manner. If there is no clear indication, asume the post is written in jest. This notification is meant very seriously and its purpouse is to avoid misunderstandings and the consequences thereof. Furthermore; I can not be held accountable for anything I write on these forums since the idea of taking serious responsability for my unserious actions, is an oxymoron in itself.

 

Important: as the following sentence contains many naughty words I warn you not to read it under any circumstances; botty, knickers, wee, erogenous zone, psychiatrist, clitoris, stockings, bosom, poetry reading, dentist, fellatio and the department of agriculture.

 

"I suppose outright stupidity and complete lack of taste could also be considered points of view. "

Well, think on this.

 

The experience progression for Fallout is the same with the d20 System. Also the Perk progression, if you don't take the Gifted Talent, is pretty much the same as the Feat progression (minus the one at first level). The real difference here is that the majority of the d20 System products are classed based while Fallout is not but there are very successful d20 variants that removed the class system, True20 being one of them.

 

There are already a lot of SPECIAL in d20 already.

 

Also they couldn't use GURPS because GURPS doesn't have the open gaming license and SPECIAL has more things in common with the d20 System than GURPS 4e now.

The Fallout crazies will get ahold of these people and then it will be a called shot to the groin with a triple crit and massive damage.

It's so true.

One billion b-balls dribbling simultaneously throughout the galaxy. One trillion b-balls being slam dunked through a hoop throughout the galaxy. I can feel every single b-ball that has ever existed at my fingertips. I can feel their collective knowledge channeling through my viens. Every jumpshot, every rebound and three-pointer, every layup, dunk, and free throw. I am there.

Well I mean, when you are right, I'm not going to disagree with you.
