'''''d20 Modern''''' is a game utilizing the [[D20 System]], launched in 2002.
Set in the [[Present Day]], the players have access to a variety of modern careers and weapons - any weapon, religion, nationality or anything else that exists on modern-day Earth can be used in game. Optional [[Sourcebook]]s expanded the game to cover any post-medieval setting, from the Renaissance to the far future.
Line 8:
The d20 Modern core book suggests four specific campaign models, while later [[Sourcebook]]s added more options, and the [[Game Master]] has the choice of mixing and matching rules elements from as many different sources as s/he wants. ([[Ninja Pirate Zombie Robot|Elvish Pirates versus Alien Wizards]] inside [[Humongous Mecha]]--<small>[[Recycled in Space|IN SPACE]]</small>? [[Rule of Cool|You got it!]])
