   Could you please post a game review/overview for each game/system covered on the Modus Operandi site? Some of the games/systems already have them, such as TS/SI. Maybe a member who knows the game/system well could write them.

   A product list for each game would be very nice too. For systems, such as d20 Modern and Savage Worlds, this would be "spy" genre material only (if any).

   This would help people who are unfamiliar with that game/system get a feel for it. Some of the more obscure out of print games require alot of effort and expense to aquire a copy of.

   That sounds like a fair request. I'm a bit busy at the moment though so if anyone else wants to submit something please do so

   Wikipedia has a solid article on the James Bond game, at <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Bond_007_(role-playing_game)>. It lists the items below.

   I played some Bond, but didn't actually have many of the books; does anyone see any omissions?

   Main Rules
   -James Bond 007: Role Playing in Her Majesty's Secret Service
   -James Bond 007: Role Playing in Her Majesty's Secret Service (Box Set)

   Adventures
   -Goldfinger
   -Octopussy
   -Dr. No
   -You Only Live Twice
   -Live and Let Die
   -Goldfinger II - The Man With The Midas Touch
   -The Man with the Golden Gun
   -A View to a Kill
   -You Only Live Twice II: Back of Beyond
   -For Your Eyes Only

   There were some(2?) separate small(?) games that came in boxed sets. Their names escape me...

   Could the post by NMC be completed by someone who knows what the games were called and then made into a PDF and posted for download in the James Bond 007 section of Modus Operandi?

   That would give us a, more or less, permanent product list record, as the question of what was published for a particular game continually comes up.

   The four boxes you're thinking of were "Action Adventure Games". They were rules for two players inspired by one particular chase scene from some of the movies. I never used them when running the related JB007 adventure, but I suppose you could.

   Goldfinger, item #35502 (4 cars vs Aston Martin DB5 around the Auric Enterprises complex)
   Live and Let Die, item #35503 (3 speedboats vs Bond's boat around the Louisiana bayou)
   The Man With the Golden Gun, item #35504 (Scaramanga vs Bond in the funhouse maze)
   You Only Live Twice, item #35505 (3 helicopters vs Little Nellie around the volcano base)

   Here's a link to a site that lists "all" available game materials.
