D-20 RPGs & Campaign Settings Index
RPGs including the d20 system and those using the main basic or "core system" book(s) for D&D 3rd & "3.5" edition
The full listing of D&D 3rd & 3.5th edition material is maintained on its own
D&D page, q.v.
The RPGs listed here generally require use of the D&D 3.5 Players' Handbook & some, the Dungeon Masters Guide; and perhaps also some of the "Core DM's Accessories" (see page just referred to)

Once again, your characters finds themselves lying in the malodorous depths of an Eternal Pit of Doom (and, even worse, your dm's brother's month-old dirty socks), waiting for the owner-Turbonium Dragon to feel the munchies and return to snack upon you - in such dire circumstances, can you really trust your dm to play fair and dissuade Draco from selecting your finer ribs for toothpicks after s/he's fed?
No!
But Now you can whip out your "Oh, the Humanity!" card to keep Draco saving against your paltry Cause Fear spell, and proceed to take advantage of the craven, precipitate flight - and your "Huzzah!" card - to leap out of the pit with several mighty bounds!
56 full-colour cards graced by the cast of John Kovalic's Dork Tower that permit you to modify the d20 system rules to allow your characters to perform well-nigh impossible deeds of derring-do (and don't), and generally keep your dm where you want him. Or her.

- Yggsburgh: Moat Gate - NEW SOURCEBOOK - available 23rd April 2008 ukL 5.99

City of Brass - NEW CAMPAIGN SETTING BOX
in 15th August 2007 ukL 36.99 (out of stock)
"across a shattered plain of volcanic rock with swirling hot winds lies a lake of fire - and hovering above it is your destination, the magical fortress soaring above a sea of flame, a bazaar at the crossroads of the universe, a place of wonder, a fable, an enigma, and rumoured to hold many the secrets of many, arcane artefacts of power, relics both fantastic and foul, where one's greatest dreams and darkest nightmares may be found, for a price: The City of Brass"
"encircled by flames and wrapped in smoke, its shining towers rise up out from the great brass bowl upon which the City is built, accessible only via its massive bridge of polished obsidian; and within its gates lies the greatest repository of arcane knowledge and artefacts of power in all the Planes of Existence." ["~", but phraseology somewhat improved - pp.]
with many maps of both the Planar Nexus and of the City itself, multitudinous artefacts and innumerable foes of great might, and marvellous cunning, even exploring the City in the footsteps of the Prophet is not without its dangers; but should you seek to rob the hitherto impregnable Bank of the Khizanah, or choose to challenge the great Champion, the Titan Hezoid, for possession of his Maul - or possess the temerity to think to outwit the Great Vizier, and overthrow the very Sultan of Efreet himself, and claim the Throne of Brass...
well, you are more like to fail, resoundingly - and to die in exquisitely excruciating pain: but even then, you will add to the Tales of the City of Brass, The One Thousand and One Efreeti Nights. And That in Itself will be More Fame than is Achieved, or Even Looked For, by Most; And a Kind of Immortality.
"Third Edition Rules, First Edition Feel"; written by casey christofferson, scott greene and clark peterson

deep within the heart of the slums of the rat-infested city of Punjar, the Beggar-King sits weaving his plots; and by unearthing rites better left forgotten, offering up sacrifices to the Lords of Shade, his ambitions threaten to unleash a horde of shadow horrors upon Punjar's poorest - unless your party of adventurers succeed in tracking him down to his lair, and bringing the reign of the Beggar-King to an end
1st level; includes a double-sided colour battle map; written by Harley Stroh - DCC #54: Forges of the Mountain King - NEW ADVENTURE - available 17th September 2008 ukL 8.99
lost high in the Ul Dominor mountains, the tumbled ruins of a Dwarven citadel lie at the base of a volcano's smouldering caldera, knowledge of its precise location lost or mislaid; and explorers, treasure-seekers and adventurers have set out, but never returned - seemingly they, too, have been lost in the mists of the millennia.
now your party is on a firmer trail to explore the mountain fastness and its fabled Dwarven hoard; but within its halls remain ancient deathtraps unsprung - or maybe re-set, by the subterranean stronghold's new occupants?
1st level; includes four pages of cardboard cut-out colour prop written by Adrian Pommer (sp?) - DCC #55: Isle of the Sea Drake - NEW ADVENTURE - available 17th September 2008 ukL 8.99
throughout the world, the tale is told and retold by merchant adventurers in their halls, and by pirate captains in their stolen palaces alike: how a ferocious sea-monster now harries the sea-lanes, and no cargo is safe as any ship may unexpectedly be sent to a watery grave, and its crew devoured.
will your party of intrepid adventurers prove capable of the apparently impossible: slay this leviathan of the murky depths, and return with its head, to claim their reward?

He needs some intrepid adventurers to track down the whereabouts of his stolen goods - through the tumbled forests and possibly into the weird Count's manor house (a strange fellow; he hasn't visited since he came to make this last order - and he's always ordered far more wine than all the other supplies put together); not only is his wine missing, but with it in the waggon, the thieves or robbers've stolen Peter's best costume! - The Rock - NEW ADVENTURE - available 9th April 2008 ukL 4.99

- Mechanical Dream d20 RPG
One of the most refreshingly strangest rpgs to come along in years; set in a mechanical, technological alternate universe/
set in an alternate dream, but nonetheless real, universe,
the two of which are completely separate from one another/
the two of which are intimately linked with one another...
the world, Kainas, is a circle of light nearly 30,000 miles in diameter, which is but a small part of the planet, Naakinis; surrounding Kainis is the Sofe, an iontangible black wall over 40 miles high, beyond which (it is presumed) there are other worlds of light, which may or may not be circular, and which may (or may not) have their own sentient inhabitants. Light on Kainas is provided by the Pendulum, which slowly oscillates to and fro as though it were attached to the centre of Naakinis; and this light provides Kainis' stability and reality, which fade and then vanish, as the Pendulum disappears (?) behind the Sofe - which is simply a region that is too dense for the Pendulum's light to penetrate/provide reality to. Possibly. When this occurs, Kainis is overtaken by the Dream.
In the Dream, whilst the Dream is real, it is superimposed upon the mechanical world, but does not replace it - though the effects of actions taken within it can impinge upon it...
Candidate for "Weird Fun of the Year Award", Mechanical Dream is, if anything, a more than complete rpg...

What role-playing's really all about - meeting mystical marauding monsters, macassaring them, anit-macassaring them, measuring them, recording them, analysing them, cataloguing them, carving the prize joints off them - and rifling their pockets (if any).
Herein are included such dire and dreadful dementations as the ferocious Potted Plant, the unanticipated Gazebo, the shy and secretive Plutonium Dragon.. ..statted up in all their hideous power, ready to take on the Munchkin d20 adventurer party

claiming to be the most cultured and civilised city in the region, it may also justly be granted the titles of the most decadent, the most socially stratified and the most exploitative - its traders are known far and wide with their black and red-flagged ships, and their hard bargaining for all the produce and manufactures of the south.
independant for just a century, it has prospered greatly since Cheliax released its hold upon the colony, and this book details its wealth, major points of interest, the great and the - perhaps - good movers and shakers of the city, and provides numerous plot hooks for gms

Korvosa is peaceful once more, if still nervous; will the horrific, deforming and face-destroying disease that has broken out also do for the fragile peace, and what's left of civilisation in the city - and could this plague be something more than a natural, if unfortunate result of the collapse of sanitation in the city during the civil war, and movements of masses amongst the starving population? no indication of player character levels given, but the plot follows on from P7: The Edge of Anarchy, available 2nd April 2008, in the ongoing story arc; also playable as a stand-alone - #9: Escape from Old Korvosa - NEW ADVENTURE - available 21st May 2008 ukL 10.99

your heroes have at last uncovered the identity of the evil that plagues Korvosa: the vile remains of the evil warlord that once ruled over much of Belkzen. in order to defeat him again, the party must travel deep into orc-infested lands and dare the haunted reaches of Castle Scarwall, former stronghold of the sadistic tyrant, for somewhere within its walls lies the holy sword, Serithtial, the only weapon that can drive him completely from this world.

some sinister secret has escaped from the elves who've been guarding it for centuries in the Mierani Forest, and a sudden increase in unsanctioned banditry [!] in the Riddleport hinterlands holds even more menace than is at first realised; dark elves have come to Varisia.
but even the threat from the drow elves below may prove to be lesser than the new threat from the skies above...
[should be the starting adventure of the third adventure story arc, if my arithmetic doesn't betray me - ppint.]

Piratical & general swashbuckling adventures set in an alternate historical campaign setting comparable with that of the 18th & 19th centuries of our world; with both dual d20 & native system sourcebooks, etc.
255pp (+ licences p.) volume covering the entire city of the dark elves in its vast cavern complex, "a skeleton of stone wrapped in tortured flesh and clad in robes of woven silk."
Populated by one of the most viciously violent and depraved races in fantasy, Sheoloth has been expanded slowly, over the ages, as one by one caverns have been opened up and enlarged, or painstakingly chipped out of the native marbles and basalt, with pillars left intricately carved in decoration, or smoothed to a fine polished finish, the better to show off the beauty lying within the natural stone - at a price paid in blood.
Werelights, flickering corpselights, wander the streets, especially in the less well-travelled streets, where poverty-stricken foreigners cluster together - for warmth, or mutual protection?
A place of great, if sometimes strange, beauty; of great cruelties, both straightforward and subtle; of harsh discipline, and simultaneous chaotic violence; Sheoloth is a home created by the drow for themselves, very much in their own image.
Adaptable to any existing campaign, usable as the centrepiece of, or the - sometimes safe - haven whence may commence many an adventure, whether pitting players' characters against the evil rulers of the Underdeep, or hiring them in furtherance of their plans for conquest and destruction, or involving them in the feuding and politicking between the rival drow elf noble clans.

and
Modern/Near-Future Conspiracy and Espionage Adventures; set in an alternate reality campaign setting closely comparable with that of our own - but rather more paranoid, with a number of powerful, and sometimes interwoven, secret societies underlying a continuing cold - and sometimes rather hotter - war between the major powers.

This looks to be a major addition to sf roleplaying, allowing all of the exotic settings familiar from the t.v. series, which it covers in detail, season by season, across the entire history of each culture and as changed, or changeable by characters discovering the ability of the gates to permit travel in time - and as the gm's & players' interests allow, far more besides...

OGL Militaristic future RPG based on the eponymous a] original novel by Robert A. Heinlein, and b] Verhoeven's (sp?) film based very loosely upon this.
Takes space marine cadets through basic & advanced training, and out into combat against assorted armed enemy ailen species. great on atmospheric detail of the space marines, weaponry, armour, and required background; pretty well ignores civilian society, culture, arts, or any reason for fighting on assorted alien planets, let alone alien cultures & motivations. but if an rpg of space marines, life aboard dropships, the adrenaline spikes before going into action, & the mostly high-tech, but occasionally hand-to-hand combat are what you're looking for in your adventures, this is definitely up there.
To add anything from a touch more of the gritty realism & often blackly humorous side of (spaceborn) military life, to the downright farcical incompetence to which the strictly hierarchically-organised seem peculiarly prone to, i'd strongly recommend also reading Joe Haldeman's The Forever War, and Harry Harrison's Bill, the Galactic Hero (but none of the dire, and much later-written, collaborative sequels to this latter - be warned - ppint.).

The Z'bri came - and destroyed our civilisation, using humanity as their playthings. Then came the Guides, who liberated people from this inhuman bondage: but the world remains a shattered place, and our futures lie shattered with it. Now life in the remaining enclaves is a matter of survival whilst recovered and jealously conserved stores of essentials run down, and the knowledge and skills to repair the damage and rebuild are scattered, and are steadily being forever lost, as the wild tribes sack and pillage - yes, and rape - their way through these islands in a sea of wilderness and barbarism, and one by one, they fall...

for adventurers prepared to take up their swords & pistols to fight for king[*], country, corporate or private profit "upon account", and to this noble end ready, willing & able to set sail, steam or star-drive for the Void, and whatever may be contained therein: cinematic space opera setting providing many diverse races, cultures & locations and opportunities for adventure, not least that of the ex-Humans Cyber-Dystopia of 22nd Century Earth, rescued and carried off to a far solar system where they were able to start anew; for not only did they find cultures descended from earlier explorative ages of mankind's history, and non-human races presumably "collected" in a similar manner, but the Elder Race that was so benevolently inclined as to give so many a second chance has itself disappeared: tension is mounting, and the Chosen are girding themselves for war.
