Stardust Publications is pleased to announce that we recently went through the D20 Rules Options: Volume #1 book that we produced months ago for the D20 system and revised and expanded the material that was presented in the book.

From the beginning, the point of D20 Rules Options: Volume #1 was cerate a book of variant D20 rules that can be used to heighten the D20 experience to a more realistic level within the gaming environment. With the new additions to the book, we have added in a system for awarding Experience points to gaming groups that tend to center most of their gaming sessions around actual roleplaying rather than advancement through combat awards alone.

There are 3 different Campaign Levels of Experience Awards that are based on the overall campaign premise; if the Games Master wants their Players to slowly crawl towards their next level the GM chooses the Low Level Campaigns option for experience awards. If the Games Master wants their Players to cruise along towards their next level of advancement at a nice steady pace, then the GM chooses the Moderate Level Campaign option. And if the Games Master wants their Players to sprint along towards their next level advancement, the GM chooses the High Level Campaigns option.

There is also a Wealth table for D20 Modern for the D20 Apocalypse book for higher starting Trade Units than the core book allows for, based on starting wealth levels similar to the 3.5 D&D Dungeon Masters Guide Wealth table.

The book contains a variant system for spellcasting that requires the use of a Spellcraft Check to successfully cast magics (both Arcane and Divine) and Critical Success and Critical Failures Tables.

We also added a Critical Failures Table for Melee Combat for those moments that the Games Master does not want to add lib it , or for those Games Masters that want a standardized Critical Failures Table in their games.

The book is presented in a spiral binding to allow for easier use at the gaming table. All of this and more can be found in the D20 Rules Options: Volume #1 book for the low price of 10.99.
