System: Modern d20 OGL
There is far more to an exciting and cinematic fight scene than endless blacktop and nondescript rooms. Fights can occur in all kinds of places - in the narrow, rain-slick alleyways of a city; on the deck of a ship pitching in a storm; on the hard icy floor of a hockey rink; waist-deep in the thick muck of a Florida swamp; or, even in the strange landscape of some alien world.
Set-pieces provides several ways to define the battlefield including Slipperiness, Slope, Narrow Footing, Obstacles, and Glare. Also presented are thirteen new Props you can use to spice up combat.
System: Any, contains no rules-specific material.

GM's Cookbook: Cyberpunk-Genre Plot Hooks provides fifteen hooks for your high-tech, low-life roleplaying game.
A plot hook is just what it sounds like. It's that kernel of an idea, a premise that you can develop and flesh out, turning it into a scenario or subplot for the characters in your campaign. Use these hooks to jumpstart your imagination and weave the resulting ideas into the existing plot threads of your campaign to create something uniquely suitable for your game.

The term heroic bloodshed was originally coined to describe a film genre that was born out of Hong Kong’s new wave cinema. So what is heroic bloodshed? Let’s break it down. The heroism in the title manifests itself as a sense of duty, a code of honor, and a feeling of brotherhood to those who also live by these outmoded concepts. The bloodshed in the title comes as the result of attempts at redemption when the world is against you, the relentless pursuit of vengeance, and highly stylized violence.
Heroic Bloodshed: Talent Trees is a supplement for Modern d20/OGL that provides eight talent trees for use with a heroic bloodshed-genre game or with any Modern OGL game. These Talent Trees are:
