    No Ghost in the Shell rpg?

    Hero System 6th Ed has Kazei 5. It's cyberpunk but more white collar. Very detailed anime-inspired setting. I'm using it now to build a Cyberpunk-Shadowrun hybrid, but as it is, it would play GitS really well.

    Heroic Maps Geomorphs - have you used them?

    I came across the Heroic Maps line over on DriveThruRPG (http://rpg.drivethrustuff.com/browse.php?manufacturers_id=5371) and am wondering of anyone has experience with these. The reason I ask is they are listed as 10" squares. How do you go about printing this odd size? I am in the US, and use...

    Any fans of the Hero System on this site? or The reports of Hero's death have been greatly exaggerated!

    My first RPG ever was Champions 4th Ed: the Big Blue Book. I loved it...we dabbled in Fantasy Hero a bit, but it fell by the wayside after a bit. I worked at a FLGS for a bit a few year ago, and 6th Ed was just coming out. It got me interested again, so I started buying the books, but it wasnt...

    Help me find the right game!

    Are you looking for fluff already made for you? The HERO System is amazing. It seriously isnt as scary as it might look initially, and I guarantee it can do all that you want. It was my first game ever played 20 years ago, but I took a 19 year hiatus from it. Coming back, Ive introduced a few...

    Help! Advice needed on how to game with my friend who is a jerk.

    Oh man. I feel for the OP. I've been in this situation. It sucks (you wouldnt be from San Jose, would you? Heh...too much coincidence...). Here's the deal. This might not be a popular thing to say, but gamers especially often suffer from a lack of social skills. In fact, some of the worst...

    Non-D&D Fantasy Games - the best and why?

    Check out Arcanis by Paradigm Concepts. Its a good one, and a beefy, nice book to boot.

    Dave Duncan's Seventh Sword - need info

    I loved these books, and Im sure they are packed away somewhere in my parents attic somewhere. What I am hoping to find is the color of the seven sword ranks. I know green is the top, since that is what Sonshu was, but I am needing the order of the others. Do you have it?

    Help me find an online game-running aid

    There is an advertiser, I THINK on this site, that has a website to help with running your RPG. It seemed D&D-centric, but maybe not? I think it also mentioned offering a place to put your Wiki for your world... But I cant find it! Oyster, or Crystal...something. Any ideas?

    Review of the Eclipse Phase RPG - Go fork yourself!

    Good review. I am actively looking at this as a possibility for my next Sci-Fi game, but Ive been so happy with Alpha Omega that I want to get my new gaming group started on it. Both EP and AO look quite chunky and "open", but AO for sure has been a good one (The Official Alpha Omega Website).

    New Arcanis RPG - has anyone played it?

    Because of this thread, I looked at the two reviews posted, then ran right down to my FLGS and bought it. Looking back to, oh, 3 hours ago, I likely _shouldnt_ have just bought it, since I have to convince my group to play with me, but Ive been SCOURING these forums looking for hints of a good...

    D&D 3E/3.5 Considering 4e, coming back after a long time away from v3.5

    Romantically, I'd love to DM again. Realistically, Ive lost confidence in my DMing skills, and with young children and two jobs, have just lost the time needed to run a good game. So, the short answer is that I'd likely be playing, not DMing. That being said, Im going to have to convince my...

    D&D 3E/3.5 Considering 4e, coming back after a long time away from v3.5

    I bought 4e books when they were first released; as such, I have PHB 1, DM 1, and MM 1. I havent ever actually played 4th ed. Getting slightly tired of v3.5, and wanting something new, I picked my 4th ed books up again, read them, then went to my FLGS to have a chat with the guys and gals...

    Superhero Systems Needed

    I really enjoyed Champions, and played heavily during 4th edition. I own 5th and am looking for a local group to play 6th with. Yea, it takes math to get the characters made, but it runs pretty nicely for the most part. For what its worth, Im selling an awful lot of my RPGs that I havent...

    Making your own power cards

    Late commer to the thread and all, but I was just deciding to try this as of late last week... Also, @ Tintagel: Some cards I found on Educatedgamer.net under Paladin-Pregen.pdf, I think the action icon of Channel: Divine Strength looks off. It has the cog of the Standard action, not the...
