Sure, but I'm looking for influence not innovation. Advantage/Disadvantage is not invented with 5ed but it surely contributed the most to expand this rule.

Sure, but I want to leave "Story games" and "Solo games" out of the list, as I thing are a different beast from traditional RPG.

All things considered, to resume it all, my new list is like this: 1. D&D: the first. the one that started it all. Class system with level progression. 2. Gurps: Generic point buy system, classless. 3. Traveller: Career paths, nre atribute aprox. so many innovations. 4. Runequest: Skill system...

ArsMagica: Magic system, troupe style game, between adventure actions. Sorcerer: spawned the indie era. Burning wheel: warped-up the indie era. Savage Worlds: definitively out of the list. Fate: It boosted the whole "aspect" influence in the games.

Can Mork Borg be considered OSR or it's another different beast?

What about games from the last decade? Any "new" game really influential?

Agreed on Savage Worlds, it's out of the list. Added Ghostbusters and what about OSRIC for the OSR movement?

I'd like to know your opinion about the most influential RPG in RPG history. Those game that were precursors and lead the rpg design through the history. So far my list would be something like this: D&D The Fanstasy Trip (GURPS dady) Champions Traveller CoC Vampire Ars Magica Sorcerer Burning...

Not yet, but I'm strongly inclined to Dragon Warriors. With Pre-gen level 3 characters. Enough for "survivalbility" but not much moving parts and easy to handle rules (although very very very old school approach with several resolution systems, which is what makes me uncomfortable with).

Why low rolls bothers? Agreed. My main criticize to SW is the randomness of the combat related to open-ends damage. It's cool in theory from the PC POV but it sucks when an Extra inficts massive damage to a PC. I know it is intended to make combat meaningful, dangerous and dramatic but I don't...

I'm afraid not, players stated they wanted high fantasy elements with dwarfs, elfs, magic users...I thing Pendragon (with all its virtues, I love it!) it's out of this equation. Thanks! In fact, I have to tweak Dragon Warriors to fit some of the fantasy races as there aren't included in the core...

Sure! I found FAGE stunt points with a high coolness factor. My sons really enjoyed them.

What about Dragon Warriors? Any experience with beginners anyone?

Agreed. That was a feeling I had about the game. It's an easy game...but not so much for a first impression where I'd like to give the players a "free-form playing" without much concerns on the tactical aspects of the game. Thank you.

What about Dragonbane? Do you consider it fine for new beginners?
