Ranger REG 03-13-08, 02:49 AM	Anyone have a favorite 3rd party d20 product? What and why? The only OA third-party product line is Rokugan from AEG. :uh-huh: If that was to be a general question, I don't see how it is relevant to the Oriental Adventures forum since WotC haven't released the material as OGC (and at the rate and direction they're heading, they won't as with many other 3e material).
Pyrate_Jib 03-13-08, 01:38 PM	Green Ronin had out a monster book entitled "Jade Dragons and Hungry Ghosts". I seem to remember a module/ supplement out by that company who uses hot semi-nude women as art on Ancient China. I believe Monkey God games had out a module. Various historical supplements including "Stone to Steel" and one hard cover book on Feudal Japan. Oh and Chain Mail Bikini had out "Beyond Monks". I think I own most of these. Kinda shocked by your response REG. You always appeared to be polite and in the know. Maybe I caught you on a off day when you felt rather Trollish?
narukagami 03-13-08, 04:57 PM	Green Ronin had out a monster book entitled "Jade Dragons and Hungry Ghosts". I found the monsters to be too silly or stereotypical. I seem to remember a module/ supplement out by that company who uses hot semi-nude women as art on Ancient China. "Jade and Steel," I think it was called. Its a horrid book, don't waste your money. I believe Monkey God games had out a module. Don't know of it. Various historical supplements including "Stone to Steel" and one hard cover book on Feudal Japan. If you're thinking "Secrets of the Samurai," (or something like that) its not very good. For a book thats supposed to be set in Sengoku Japan all the setting information comes straight out of Edo, or is just plain wrong. The new mechanics are OK, but I'd take any of the "historical" info within with a grain of salt. Oh and Chain Mail Bikini had out "Beyond Monks". Its ok, some of the new feats are interesting. I wish Gold Rush Games actually came out with their Sengoku d20 book... But otherwise I've got not much else to add, except the d20 Rokguan line, which is a good source for mechanics and ideas, but for a straight up L5R game I prefer straight up L5R. :P There is also "Quintessential Samurai" by Mongoose, but thats (like their entire Quintessential series) a waste of paper.

Maybe I misread the question. My bad. If mean Asian-flavored rather than something specific like basing off of Oriental Adventures (again those material have not yet been added to the SRD and probably never will) I might be more helpful, except anything relating to Rokugan d20. Legends of the Samurai by RPG Objects is a good book for use in Asian-flavored game. Quintessential Samurai and Quintessential Ninja (along with Quintessential Monk) by Mongoose Publishing are another set of resources.
Pyrate_Jib 03-14-08, 07:38 PM	are the Quintessential books any good?
narukagami 03-14-08, 10:39 PM	are the Quintessential books any good? Not in the least.
