Message: [QUOTE="Octopus, post: 2777, member: 4"] I'm a huge fan of tabletop RPGs, stuff like Dungeons and Dragons and Shadowrun and what have you, and I'm curious if anyone else has some things to share about them. Your favourite systems, books, art, whatever can fit in here. I've been playing them for honestly probably since I was about 8 maybe- I found my dads old D&D books when I was a few years younger than that, but I would just read the books over and over again as I was still a little young I think to really grasp what it was. I've been gaming ever since, I'm even working on two game systems (ones a space exploration mech game, the other a kung fu themed fantasy) of my own with a friend we're hoping to put out there somehow. As for what I've played: -every edition of D&D, with 2nd and 5th being the most common. -I've played 4th ed Shadowrun more times than I can count, along with a bit of 5th ed (don't talk to me about 6th). -Anima: Beyond Fantasy (that game is an absurdly wild ride). -FantasyCraft, wasn't a terribly big fan but it was a good Pathfinder substitute. -Played an Adventurer, Conqueror, King campaign (ACKs for short) for a little over a year. -Traveler, one of my actual favourite old school style ones- you can die at character creation, happened to me far too many times. -I just finished GMing an Ascendant campaign, which is a super hero RPG system made by the guy who made ACKs. -Burning Wheel, which was a fascinatingly deep and realistic fantasy medieval sim essentially. I think that's all, maybe there's a few others in there I played once or twice that I can't recall. Right now, my group and I are taking a break from our Ascendant game and switching to the classic 1986 TSR Marvel Super Heroes system for something a little more light mechanics wise, I'm running that too so it's been a lot of random super villain generation for me lately. Oh, and I can't believe I forgot to mention the Call of Cthulhu RPG- it's a great system that perfectly captures the source material, complete with every other character ending up insane eventually. Played it numerous times, highly recommend it. I played the 20th Anniversary edition, think it came out in maybe 2003 or so, but I hear the latest 7th edition is a really great edition. [/QUOTE]
