Just a heads up about GM's Day - I did not have a chance to look around the first few days, but there is some good stuff out there, just looking at the items going for $1 and my own experiences:

E.N. Publishing - all E.N Publishing material is $1
Elements of Magic: Mythic Earth - my choice for a Spycraft magic system. (I still need to rewrite my Spycrafted version of the Mage class from the book -it seems to have gone west while I was transferring files to my new computer.....)

Adamant - ditto
Thrilling Tales Omnibus Edition - 1930 style pulp gaming. This has some really good stuff for Spycrafting. Smiley
Victorian Age - Victorian style pulp gaming (not available in a single large volume though).
Scenarios for these games might well be modified to Spycraft to good effect. Smiley
Mars? I have no idea, but looks pulpy.

Anyone else have things to add to the list?

From what I've heard, it's a good book in theory, but comes across a little lacking in execution.

As, as Dave said, there's the 'Classic' Spycraft line upthere, too.

Heh, somehow Spycraftin' Spycraft stuff seems a little redundant.... Plus it was already mentioned on these forums by the Crafty Crew.

A little late now, but...

I ran some of this. For a D20 Modern book, it's good. Has some neat ideas.

But I did find myself missing Spycraft while running it. Mooks need to be more mookish (and they even have a mook rule. Problem is that most weapons in D20 Modern aren't sized large enough to trigger their 10 HP MDT.)

Something that I missed the first time through was UKGs StockArt covers - Not all that expensive to begin with, but can make decent covers for campaign bibles and PC setting handbooks.
