Piratecat's Fiasco: Star Trek
Game Blurb: Fiasco is pretty much a Cohen Brothers movie in a RPG, best described as "strong ambitions meet bad impulse control." It's also the funniest game I've played in the last two years, and space opera - whether it's Star Trek, Star Wars, Aliens, Buck Rogers, or more - is a perfect target for parody! We create the plot as we go along. No rules knowledge needed.
You can sign up for this or my afternoon game of Old School Hack, but not both.

Silvermoon's Avengers: Let's Do the Time Warp Again! (Mutants & Masterminds 2e)
Game Blurb: Marvel's premiere superhero team is once again ravaged by the great Time Warlord known as Kang. Can a hodge-podge team of current, former and reserve Avengers manage to thwart his plans to change many critical points in time in the Marvel Universe's history? Players may choose for their playing character ANY hero who has ever been an Avenger (on a first come, first serve basis).

Rodrigo's The Vietnam Job (Leverage)
Game Blurb: In 1972, a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire... The A-Team.
The cast-
Hannibal - The Mastermind
Face - The Grifter
Murdock - The Hacker
B.A. Baracus - The Hitter
Tia* - The Thief
The Job-
A mysterious ex-intelligence officer presents the A-team with the job of a lifetime- a chance to take down corrupt military officials and clear their name at last.
* (She was the Vietnamese-American sidekick at the end of the fourth season, played by Tia Carrere. Since she was supposed to join the cast in the fifth season, let's pretend she did, and let's pretend she grew up as a streetwise orphan in Hanoi.)

Piratecat's Into the Darkness! (Old School Hack)
Game Blurb: Who knows what monsters dwell beneath the ruins of the old mill? If the elf and the dwarf don't stop bickering while you try to sneak you're surely going to find out, because your team of intrepid old-school heroes have been hired for 13 gold and a ham sandwich to go exploring. Nothing could be finer.

Carlzog's The Death Planet (Alternity)
Game Blurb: A simple run to a remote mining colony turns complicated when the crew of the tramp freighter, Ethel's Misery stumbles on to the planet's deadly secret. Spaceship battles, alien encounters, evil galactic corporations, and a chance to play the Alternity system! What more can you ask for?

Zephrim the Lost's Virtual Wyoming (Dread)
Game Blurb: Virtual Wyoming is a prescription-only VR experience where guests are downphased into a replica of the nation's 10th largest state on a lovely spring day in 1905. This simulation is exact to the highest degree of our knowledge of the region, and features a complete inventory of the flora and fauna found in the American West at the time- but no people! (Except for our guests, of course.) Visitors will have free reign over nearly 100,000 blissfully empty square miles, yet enjoy era-appropriate features such as paved roads and running water, which take the 'rough' out of roughing it!
If your Health Care Provider thinks you need time to relax, Virtual Wyoming is the only VR retreat you should consider. Come and lose -or find- yourself in a blissfully calm place where nothing could possibly go wrong.
