    Uncannily prescient PCs.

    Not sure if these fit but... POSSIBLE SPOILERS I suppose: Game: Villains & Vigilantes GM: Me Sitch: Using a slightly alerted version of the original Ravenloft module as the home base/hq/fortress of one of our arch-enemies, a Vampire who in life was a Mutant who could teleport. The Sunsword...

    Pathfinder 1E [Pathfinder] The Old School New School Fighter

    The choice of a name for this class seems ludicrously simple to me. If you want a classic, basic Fighter class, call it a Fighter. Remember that the current incarnation of this class is called Warrior. Warrior sounds much more involved then Fighter which is basically, y'know, someone who...

    Same Character, New Sexiness

    I ran a very successful series of games (D&D, Traveller, M&M) where the player characters are members of some kind of large organization, guild, team, corporation, etc. that employs and deploys numerous agents for different missions. The concept was larger inspired the the Legion of Superheroes...

    Game Systems to Try

    What's D&D? ;) As someone who rarely plays D&D might I suggest... Ars Magica Faery's Tale Deluxe InSpectres (Just ran a house ruled version of this for Ghostbusters and it went over really, really well) MAID Mouse Guard Mutants & Masterminds Star Trek (LUG or FASA) Star Wars (WEG/D6)...

    Suggest an RPG (not D&D)

    Faery's Tale Deluxe-Fun, fast, flexible and ridiculously easy to run and play. Other then that I would probably suggest an indie rpg such as my recent favorite InSpectres (very 'Ghostbusters'). AD Barking Alien

    Rolemaster?

    The game for people who love Charts! My friends and I tend to refer to this game, especially the first edition, as ChartMaster or RuleMaster. :p Snarkiness aside, it's a game that is not as much complicated as cumbersome. It tends not to run fast and smooth if many characters (PCs and NPCs...

    Games you won't play

    The short answer is...No There is no game I won't try at least once. As a matter of fact, trying new games and systems was my 'thing' when I was in my early, developmental years in this hobby. The end result of this is that I got over the whole 'D&D is the End-All, Be-All' back in the...

    What alternate game systems are you trying out if you don't like 4e?

    When I get the chance to play I play classic (LBBs) mixed with MegaTraveller and a few house rules. AD Barking Alien

    What alternate game systems are you trying out if you don't like 4e?

    Funny...I don't think of them as alternate To me, 4E is the newcomer/outsider/interloper and the alternate choice for people who are not enjoying some game already on the market. D&D 3.x was fine and dandy for a good many people and as such there was no need for them to change. That said, and...

    Which RPGs are you currently playing?

    Currently running an over-the-top four-color Mutants & Masterminds campaign and beginning a TOS Movie Era Star Trek campaign next month (LUG/ICON System). AD Barking Alien

    Star Trek (movie) made me think of Star Trek RPG... so...

    Star Trek is my default game and, as has been stated, there have been several incarnations but no official game is currently in print. My recommendation is Last Unicorn Games' version, aka LUGTrek, which uses a d6 based rules system called the ICON system. The ICON system is, IMHO, the best...

    obsolete poll - see new link.

    Oops... I voted on what I run and not what I play. :p Currently I run a Mutants & Masterminds campaign once a month and I'm starting a Star Trek (LUG/ICON System) campaign next month. I presently play in a D20 3.x variant/homebrew and a D20 modern homebrew (somewhat irregularly). AD...

    So, after the Green Ronin announcement, I am...

    Just a thought...based on this thread Mass Effect would seem a much more popular choice. Too bad WotC has Star Wars. A Bioware/Green Ronin product based on the upcoming Old Republic MMO would rock all kinds of butt. ;) AD Barking Alien

    So, after the Green Ronin announcement, I am...

    QFT. This is my feeling exactly. Anything that brings about the creation of more table top diceslingers is a good thing. Green Ronin is a most awesome company indeed so anything that benefits them is likewise cool in my book. Its just...well...this particular item doesn't interest me at all. I...

    So, after the Green Ronin announcement, I am...

    Hmmm... I'd say I'm disappointed it wasn't something bigger and better considering the countdown timer but it is Green Ronin and I'm sure they'll do a great job on it. I am a little surprised though that there was such a big build up for a P&P RPG based on a game that's not even out yet. I...

    Countdown-timer at Green Ronin...? What's it all about?

    If its Middle Earth I'll be pleasantly surprised. Could be very cool. If its Star Trek I will be very torn. I LOVE Star Trek! Star Trek d20 of any kind is anathema to me. DC? I would pee my pants and kiss the ground Pramas and Kenson walk on. Anything else would be a curiosity at best...

    Countdown-timer at Green Ronin...? What's it all about?

    At one time... I was working in...the industry...and Green Ronin was set to get a relatively large and awesome license for their Mutants & Masterminds game but as I understand it, the deal fell through. If it didn't fall through and they're gonna make the game after all...OMG. AD Barking Alien

    So which non- D&D based games have you played?

    I'm with Henrix... I don't think EN World has enough bandwidth for me to represent the number of non-D&D games I've run and/or played. I rarely play D&D, started again recently and its simply not my favorite by a long shot. AD Barking Alien

    Ratio of male:female gamers (was forked "DDM: Chicks not in chainmail")

    Atypical Amoung The Unusual Once again I have to shake my head as I am now firmly convinced I spent much of my formative years on a parallel world. My current game is the first I've had with a regular group containing no female members in the last 20 years (beginning in January of this year)...
