Nah, D&D D20 is worse. You have Skills and Feats to remember - I nightmare for the GM.

Do people really have that impression? I have to admit the only Mongoose game I realy care for is GoMC1 but looking at the rest of them they seem pretty solid. At least the genres don't seem juvenile.

Which is why I played it once and never upgraded, sold off the couple of books I did have and refuse to play it. I think the D20 system is ok, and I would have been less opposed had they called it "D20 Fantasy" instead of D&D 3rd Edition. Modern D20 is ok and Star Wars D20 is alright as well, but whenever I run either I tweak the rules and simplify things.
Also for MOdern D20 I triple all firearm damage. I just feel like guns aren't deadly enough in D20.

I loved the clunky old Ad&D rules, third edition killed it's character. I like THACO, THACO was great, you knew where you were as a DM when you were the only person who actually knew how the hell combat worked

You could 'cheat' in favour of your players more easily with THACO. Coming up with all sorts of random modifiers to make thier lives easier if neccessary kwim.

It was great, no matter how stupid the players, you could tweak it so they didn't all die in the first random encounter with two kobolds ten minutes into the first game

What I realy liked about THAC0 was that you only had ten or twelve different numbers to deal with for Armor class. One of the biggest pobelms I have with 3rd Ed is the numbers just get too big. Everything seems overpowered. It feels like they tried to take am MMORPG and make a Pen and Paper game out of it. That and I don't like the new artwork, why does every outfit on every chraacter have 56 pockets and 45 functionless buckles?
And someone please explain how you use two crossbows at the same time and not get slaughtered.

Well after moving from the Uk to Australia and having to sell just about everything I have finally managed to rebuild a city to fight over.
Here are some pics. Please let me know what you think
Sorry lots of pics
I have tried to keep some of the names from the Original City so The Pink Pussy is still there as is the Novalties building, they have just changed a little.
Cursed Earth maybe?
