There’s been some . . . issues with Wizards of the Coast recent handling of the Open Game Licence, the licence that SEP published almost all of its first products–many of them under the d20 sub-licence.

But the recent attempt to pull the rug from under creators by WotC, probably to please their corporate masters at Hasbro, has soured me on the OGL entirely.

 Covert Forces Redux cover

Based on the acclaimed Covert Forces, Covert Forces Redux is a d20 Modern supplement, updated and expanded to almost double its original size. Here you’ll find all the information you need to play operators in some of the world’s most famous special operations forces. With extensive descriptions of Australia’s SASR, Canada’s JTF-2, the US’ Delta Force and SEALs, and the United Kingdom’s SAS and SBS, it also includes concise descriptions of 44 other special operations forces from Algeria’s Saaykaa to the Ukraine’s Spetznaz Brigade. This PDF also includes feats, combat options, rules for “fluid situations”–from ambushes to snipers–new pieces of equipment, new weapons, and new vehicles.

Covert Forces Redux is indespensible for players and game masters interested in exploring the world of spec ops.
