You could use the UBB.News addon over at UBBDev and set it to show the last X topics, then set your source forums and format the page however you'd like it to display... I do something similar at www.undergroundnews.com

I am a Web Development Contractor, I do not work for UBBCentral. I have provided free User to User Support since the beginning of these support forums.
Do you need Forum Install or Upgrade Services?
