We did not want to reinvent the wheel; we just wanted to make it roll smoother on the modern highway (maybe with some low-pro bling 22Õs). The rules system in the Modern Path Ð Heroes of the Modern World RPG is, we feel, an evolutionary step forward for a system that has already proven to be excellent in another genre. Thanks to the wonderful OGL, we admit that most of the work was already done. What we have focused on is making a system that is versatile, as is fitting for the modern times.
Because of globalization, characters in a modern setting should not be Òpigeon-holedÓ into classes or areas of knowledge. We offer only one base class Ð the Modern Hero, a framework upon which to build. It is then up to the player to build his own unique character and to have the freedom to shape that character as it advances through the levels of experience. So, versatility and freedom of choice, letÕs make that our hallmark.
