Title: D20 WH40K--has anyone seen this?

It's not really my bag but given all the discussion of late, I thought I'd link it:

Jesus Christ!

The map is incredible!

Wonder how it plays?

This is D20 Modern.

Weak.

That map is an amalgam of many WH40k maps of the Imperium given in multiple volumes.

So GW doesn't have a habit of sending C&D letters to sites like that?

I dig the map. But I'm not a fan of d20 Modern so it ain't my cup of tea. Props to the people running the site for being creative and whatnot. They got balls though: I hope GW doesn't slap them around any.

They're not selling anything.  GW doesn't care.  Besides, like 5 people downloaded it.

Before anyone says that Damnatus wasn't selling anything, that had to do with copyright laws differing in Germany from U.K. laws in the distribution clauses.  In Germany, the film can be free...but the DVD you got it on wouldn't be.  GW put a halt to that and they desisted...

I've seen it before, it's been around a while.

I don't think its all that good, fanboyitis and all that. Did you look at the stats for the Assassins? They don't even need to roll dice to be better than most of humanity.

Still, at least (unlike, say Dark Heresy) he actually has some stuff on the Tau...

This is a good example of why all the 40k stuff in one rpg book would SUCK.

You want Space Marines, and straight DOG on Dark Heresy for not including them.  Space Marines wouldn't even need to roll to be better than most of humanity and you'd complain SO HARD if that made it to print.

Great Gods!! The irony strikes me.  We could have saved all that argument just by pointing at this.

You're defending a system that couldn't even scale its own subject matter properly?

Of course, the real irony is that there actualy is only one book, unintentional though it may be.

I guess you'd know what was proper.

There may only be one book, but it doesn't have everything in it.

That's a good thing.

I am not responsible for your poor reading comprehension. Dawg.

You're responsible for writing things only you can comprehend.

I guess that means you failed the Reading Comprehension on the GED.

Lets go ahead and turn this thread into another Flame Bloat and be done with it, now that we're back to fighting.

I dunno.  Why does Blackhand compose every post in mis-metered haiku?

!i!

Nobody said it was Haiku.

You are therefore offbase in your assumption.

Mis-metered is your mother.

That's "mis-Matered".  And that's pretty good!

I'm kind of curious as to why all his posts are largely complete non-sequiturs with no relation to what anyone is saying and no sound or sane conclusion or response presented to what he seems to be imagining every one is saying.

Seriously, I had to stop reading his posts because they were making my brain hurt.

You would seem to know of course.

This is what happens when a llama makes love with a paperback.

Bring the darkness out from the cold and let it loose upon an unsuspecting kitchen.

Your comprehension of my posts as Non Sequitur pretty well acknowledges you weren't paying attention when you posted.

Since you can't follow please stay out of the discussion.
