Castles and Crusades Modern Game

Has anyone worked on a modern-day application of the Castles and Crusades / SIEGE Engine?

My group is expressing some interest in playing something like d20 Modern, but I think I'd rather go rules-lite.

Edit: If no one has one, I suppose I could work on one. I just don't want to reinvent the wheel. I guess this would be okay to do, considering the C&C rules are OGL (right?)

Simon Washbourne has a few SIEGE Engine game derivatives, which you may find interesting. I do not have the link on hand, but I think its in the sticky at the top of this forum on Intraweb Utilities and the like...

Check the terms of the OGL in the C&C book. If there is a question, to be sure on the matter, get a hold of Steve and talk to him about what you want to do.

Not "modern" in the sense of d20 Modern, but they might aid in forming your own version. Shouldn't be too hard, but I would suggest going classless, but that's me.

You can make such a game yes, if you still require the C&C books, you would probably not have any trouble, as it is fan material, if you make a stand alone book though you cannot use C&C, Troll Lord or the name SIEGE, as well as any art or graphic in the book.

If I were to do something like that i would go route A and do something that still requires the C&C books.
