Nephilim from Chaosium has an incredible magic system, particularly if you use the Liber Ka rules for Sorcery. Only in this game will you find cool and evocative spell names like "The Powerful, Pale Queen of Pain with Tears of Flame."

I've been working on and off on converting it to the Hero System for some time now.

Just so you know, Mythic Egypt is available through Amazon.com:

Mythic Egypt

Price: $43.90 US

BTW, Lucius, good run-down of Egyptian occult practice.

But wait... there's more!

Not only does Terran Empire include the aforementioned starships, but it also has pre-fabbed writeups of engines, shields and weapons so that all you have to do is decide which engines, shields, and weapons you want, write up the rest of the stats, add a computer and a few other things and voila! Instant starship! Just follow the guidelines in Star Hero and Terran Empire for the purpose and mission of a starship and you can easily set the stats up (a scout ship, for example, would have a high DEX while a cargo hauler would have a high STR as well as a high SIZE).

Just some thoughts.

And weren't they also associated with the Seven Horsemen? In the back of that adventure, wasn't there a UFO located somewhere in the Arctic (IIRC) that held a contigent of Elder Worms?

Maybe I'm remembering it incorrectly. I'll have to admit: my memory is incredibly fuzzy on the details.

Unfortunately, due to this cold weather, Mechanon's joints have all frozen up.
