This is a pretty good supplement that gives the rules for cybernetics and cybernetic attachments for characters in a modern or future game. It goes from basic skill upgrades to flying. It has a bunch of different ways it helps to balance the upgrades by exp penalties, having to take feats, etc. So it's definitely worth getting for the cost.

This review is from: d20 Cyberscape : A d20 Modern Supplement (Paperback)

As a general fan of the cyberpunk genre I really must applaud this book. Cyberpunk 2020 fans and Shadowrun fans will both have bits of this book to smile about. I have bought books from both games and while Cyberspace in actually trumps neither, this is a great volume to convert either or both those systems to D20 rules. The section on alternative cybertech is actually quite intrigueing. It's almost converting cybernetics to other time periods by allowing for magic to provide for some of the technology involved. Basically it's all the computer and cybernetic rules that they couldn't squeeze into Future. Still it's a worthwhile addition to any D20 Future libary.

This review is from: d20 Cyberscape : A d20 Modern Supplement (Paperback)

This book has a lot of great new cybernetic stuff in it (new classes, a gadget system for cybernetic attachments, new hardware,etc.), but it creates a system that doesn't mesh well with the original d20 Future chapter on cybernetics. I like my rules cut-and-dried and ready to go, but this supplement isn't readily compatable with the original d20 Future rules. If you want cybernetics to play a major role in your world you will definitely want to buy this supplement, but be prepared to make some decisions.
