Quote from: Zachary The First;671751Yep. Folks should pick that up, just for the ideas alone.

And the fact that is less than US$10 on Amazon ;)

Quote from: TristramEvans;671750Oh yeah, Slaine was a bunch of fun as well.

I think its the best attempt to preserve the majority of the d20 system as seen in the D&D PHB and yet make the game its own and true to the setting. There are other good RPGs using the same base but most cleave further away for best effect.

That's kind of like asking which lobotomy I prefer.  Does DCC count?

Quote from: MoonHunter;671652Technically, my favorite D20 system is True 20... but.. that kind of skirts the rules. That would be followed by D20 Spycraft. Again, skirting the rules.



I am fond of True 20, but /best/ that is actually D20 for me would however be Star Wars D20, followed by D20 Cthulhu. I am also fond of M&M1E

QAGS looks fun, but I have never played it.

Apparition

The only D20 game I'd ever play would be DC Adventures / Mutants & Masterminds, so... I guess that would be my answer.

Novastar

Hell, even including 3.5 & PF, I'd still pick Star Wars Saga Edition.

Yep. Well worth every penny. Every 100 pennies.

Quote from: Skywalker;671800Yep. Well worth every penny. Every 100 pennies.

i bought seven copies - one for every player in my group. :)

While talking about Everstone: Blood Legacy, I would want to point out that there was a free PDF Companion for the game which you used to be able to download from their website. (Happily, the pdf clearly says you can get it for free on the second page.)  I've got a copy, but you can apparently also get it from the Everstone yahoo group.

Whoa. I didn't say it was worth 700 pennies. :)

Quote from: RPGPundit;671635So, with many years of hindsight now, I wanted to know what game you guys think was the best D20 RPG ever made?

For the sake of this thread, let's not count D&D 3.5 (or Pathfinder).

RPGPundit

Okay.

Then D&D 3.0.
