What do IMNSHO and JC mean?


In My Not So Humble Opinion and Jedi Counseling

Proof that your game isn't the "red head step child"
In 2002 D20 modern was published
Good support to begin with
D20 future was published with little to no thought about the Core book
Down hill spiral
In 2005 we are promised a full fleged campaign called Project Javelin
2005 is the last year that Notes from the bunker is published
2006 is the last time that Bullet Points is published along with the last Web enhancement
2006 Frist and last adventure for Project Javelin is published
2006 The last book Dark Matter is published
2008 During an interview on the illfated Radio Gamer Zero podcast Chris Perkins says they wll work on a new D20 modern in 2009
Forums are reorginzied consistenly causing the d20 modern forum existence to hang in the blance and many members of that community to openly rebel aginst WotC
So really when you whine and moan that your game is the "red headed step child" remeber the above history lesson.

I know this is way late but I finally read the article and frankly it is HORRIBLE.

It may do alright with the first few but as already noted it goes very poorly once it gets into the "Possible Paths" section. While all the builds are a level short the first two really should use at least a one level dip into Jedi for the Lightsaber Proficiency. With the Manipulator I think it is funny how a character would take Force Deception when they already have Deception as a trained skill giving it the same modifier as the UtF skill which could then replace it. For the Sith Warrior taking Power of the Darkside level one and Armored Defense with Soldier 5 seems like a much better idea. As previously pointed out that Fallen Jedi has way too many Force Training feats.

Perhaps Matt is a gamer in addition to the things listed in the About the Author but the article completely drops the ball on any of the "crunch" aspects of the game.
