thebitterguyWell, it looks like Mongoose is gonna make a Starship Troopers RPG.
At this point, of course, I can't say if I'd be interested. The character sheet seems to indicate it'll be d20, with classes (so no d20 Modern).
Of course, going by just the character sheet, it appears characters will be unable to learn English. A shame, that.
The preview indicates they're using the same "d20 with minimal HPs" formula as the B5 game did; you get Con at level one, and +2 at every level after that. I can't help but wonder what the Toughness feat does; if it's the same as in regular d20, I can see why they think players will take it a lot.
It unfortunately looks interesting, so I might break down and pick it up. Of course, I said that about Paranoia XP too, so we'll see.
