Hello I was hoping someone could help me find a new RPG.
For reference i have played every iteration of DnD, as well as a few side versions of the game (such as E6, pathfinder, trailblazer, and arcana unearthed, star wars/saga). For the record i have also played some other games like, gurps, merps, shadowrun, paladium (lol), etc...
You know i love DnD but I am looking for something new, specifically:
-not D20
-Detailed but easy to use magic system
- rules that "feel" realistic without being overburdened by detail
- classical fantasy (low or high magic)
I'm interested in Rune Quest, and Dragon age, based on recommends by other people but also would like to learn about more about some other games if they are out there.
Part of the reason I want to try a new system is we have just been playing DnD for so long, none of the spells /magic items have any mystery at all anymore. A fighter finding a magical sword is as humdrum and expected as picking up milk at the grocery store. I also have a few players who have far more "rules mastery" than the other players, and starting a new game kind of levels the playing field abit.
We were going try rolemaster, with another Dm but after a few hours of trying to create characters everyone was like, screw it lets just play something else.
Umm yeah so any thoughts, comments, etc.. are appreciated.
