Other Games

[Kilsern]

In the spirit of what version of WFRP are you, I'm curious, what other games do you play that you dig, and what games have you wanted to try but never have?

Me: when not mucking around in the Old World, I enjoy D&D. I've tried most incarnations, but prefer the retro clone Basic Fantasy RPG. I also enjoy Tunnels and Trolls (5.5) and recently played Star Wars: Edge of the Empire. Past favorites are Star Trek (LUG) - ran a year long campaign with it and loved it. This is D&D, but I was huge into the Birthright setting and played with it for a game that lasted nearly two years.

Games I've never tried but want to: Traveller. I own so much Traveller stuff but have never given it a go. Pendragon and Ars Magika have both enchanted me, but thus far no dice. I can't remember the name proper, but White Wolfs Changeling: the Adjective looks entertaining along with Mage: the Ascension. Call of Cthulhu. I'm not sure how I've never played CoC. I'm a big Lovecraft fan. My most recent want to play additions are Barbarians of Lemuria, Mouse Guard and Marvel Heroic RPG. The last two look completely engaging with their system rules alone.

Sheesh, you name it and i have probably played or Ref'ed it at some point over the years.

This list includes such titles as 

Bunnies and Burrows

Tales of the Floating Vagabond

Too many versions of Runequest to worry about

HOL

SLA Industries

DragonRoar (with its audio cassette and humanoid penguin pc's)

Every incarnation of D&D (even a VERY short dalliance with 4e)

Ars Magica (with its wonderful troupe play.. the WotC (pre Magic the Gathering) release)

TORG

Paranoia

7th Sea

The original FASERIP Marvel Super Heroes system.
Hero System (including Champions) in all its guises

Everything White Wolf ever published (or at least it feels like it), including the Trinity of Aberrant, Adventure and Psion.

Traveller, again in all its guises.

Twilight 2000

Gamma World

Boot Hill (although I prefer the newer Weird West Rpgs)

Amber

and the list goes on and on and on.....

[kils...@gmail.com]

I played a bit of Boot Hill back in the day. I had the most fun in college playing GURPS: Western mixed with GURPS Fantasy and GURPS High Tech with a splash of GURPS Horror. Basically, Cowboys, abducted by aliens, escape from said aliens with acquired high tech, crash land on a fantasy world ruled by a Necromancer.

I used to come up with odd GURPS games using randomization. I would roll a d4 to determine how many source books I would combine, then assign a number to each (1 to 100), roll the appropriate number if percentiles and presto! Most were too weird to go beyond one or two sessions, but the Space Cowboys in Fantasy Land versus the Necromancer was popular and played out for several months.

Hi,

  I played some "Spirit of the Century" - Fate based RPG, some "Cyberpunk 2020", "Neuroshima" - polish post apocayptic RPG, "Wolsung" - polish steampunky-kinda RPG (recently released in USA), "Dzikie Pola" - RPG game about polish nobles, "Pathfinder" and "Call of Cthulhu".

From this list I enjoyed the most "Call of Cthulhu", then "Wolsung", then "Neuroshima'.

I'm preparing also "Dark Heresy" campaign - you can watch introduction I did for players here - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-w4obDLTzWQ 

As for games I would like to play but I will probably NEVER do:

- Monastyr - polish dark fantasy-kinda game.

- Dragon Age

- Eclipse Phase(!)

- Any Star Wars RPG

- Heavy Gear

- Mutant Chronicles

- Any GURPS base games

Never say never though - until recently I thought I will never play "Dark Heresy" ;)

Cheers,

  Radek.

Nicely done Radek.  I like the intro you created for your game.  Its inspired me to think about doing something like that for any future games I might run.

Thanks for linking and sharing.

Dragon Age looks interesting to me with its stunt dice system. While I used to enjoy GURPS, I've run into too many people that munchkinize the Hell out of it. I hold onto my sourcebooks as I would be willing to run Fudge or Fate with my GURPS sourcebooks as inspiration.

I gave Dark Heresy a too brief go. I would give any of the 40K universe games a chance and keep meaning to pick them up. I tried to like Pathfinder as at one point I liked D&D3, but just didn't grokk it. I never played 3.5 and know next to nothing of 4.

Unfortunately this is offline game. My english is not good enough to GM anything.

Glad you like it.
Not that much work actually. I think good narrator and music is a must. I was lucky enough Grimith agreed to record it for me.

Cheers,

Dragon Age is a very interesting and dynamic game system.  I like the system, but prefer the warhammer world.

 

The Stunt system could almost be used in a crossover warhammer 3rd / Dragon age system to enable different characters to “purchase / access” different stunts.  They are already split into combat and magic, so expanding this to include piety, social, etc would not be a big leap.  This could streamline all the actions somewhat.

 

Cheers,

 

Adam

I played the Dragonlance 5th edition years back and enjoyed it. As I am often dice cursed, it was refreshing to not roll dice.

Haven't seen anyone mention savage worlds and their many incredible setting books: deadlands, wierd wars, fantasy. The Fantasy Grounds interface for SW and availibility if modules makes it a great go to online system!
