I have yet to work out a few rule details, (will be edited in later) but for now this is standard arena, plus all of the renaissance weaponry from the dmg. As soon as I come up with prices for the more advanced weaponry, I'll post them here. I also might make some futuristic/modern arenas (stuff like toxic pits, fixed gun turrets, stuff like that). Standard classes, and just so characters don't get instantly pwned, starting level is 3. Everything else is as normal. Have fun!
Oh right... I forgot. starting gold is 2,500.

Are you thinking about doing Unreal Tournament type weapons and stuff too?  Also, Rivnen & the guys from the Resident Evil thread worked out details for a load of new weapons and stuff that may interest you. |

Yeah, but I trashed the power of the weapons and gave them prices comparable to the renessaince weapons. (the power levels they had I felt would be just be to hard to overcome early on) Also modern weapons do ALOT of damage if they arent nerfed, perhaps the players in addition to being level 3 (4d6 to a level 3=dead) offer feats/armor that involves staying alive against bullets.

Yeah, they do quite a bit. Though consider this: Level 3 fighter, fullblade, +4 str. 2d8+6 damage. I mean, gosh. lol. Btw I was thinking the modern arena might be quicker matches then standard arena, since its true that modern weapons deal more damage. Though I was also thinking this would be slightly more strategic, having to use strategy to avoid enemy fire.

A 3rd-level wizard with a scorching ray does 4d6, average 12, at range touch. I don't see the big deal. And vallah brings up a good point. Talk to rivnen about that. Also if ANYONE reading this plays d20 modern, please step up and lend us a hand! |

Been a bit busy lately, (school, etc) so haven't been able to work on the weapons and stuff, so I'll try to get to that asap. I'm also going to see if I can find a piece of paper that I wrote info for many modern weapons on. Chances are, they aren't good enough for actual D&D play (I made them a while ago), but I'm going to look anyway. If I'm unable to find them, or they end up being complete and utter crap, then I'll try to make some weapons, add prices to the current ones, etc.

Ok, I couldn't find the weapon chart I made a long time ago. I'll try to assign prices for the current weapons, or maybe think of alternative ways to aqquire them (quests, tournaments, that sort of thing). if anyone has any suggestions, feel free to post them. Hopefully Modern Arena will do nearly as well as the standard arena, without taking away from the standard arena.
I shall also try to work on arenas, which I hope will be very sophisticated, mixing strategy with the improved weapons. I might also design obstacle courses, with enemies that need to be defeated, for added experience. These will be staged, however, and won't be available at all times (too much free exp).
Another idea is training. For a price, a character can be trained, facing npc encounters, as well as obstacle courses, etc. This will be a way to get exp, without needing to fight other players (but like I said, there would be a price). If this goes well, I might even change the starting level to 1, and have the characters undergo training like this in order to qualify for tournaments and duels.
Hopefully I'll find the time to work on this stuff, and if not, oh well. lol.

Suggestions appreciated:
If anyone has homemade weapons, addons, or anything else that fits in Modern Arena, then please post them in the appropriate thread (weapons go in Modern Weapons thread, etc) and if its good, then I'll put the info in the first post of the thread, and display who it was submitted by, and it can then be used in Modern Arena.
Thanks!

G, I have located the d20 modern SRD: www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=d20/article/msrdIt has all rules and stuff for your standard household and millitary grade guns...including a bunch ive never heard of. My only complaint is that there is no P90...so we may just have to invent one. |
