Well if you were open to Sci-Fi I'd probably suggest Warhammer: 40,0000 Squad Command. http://www.squadcommandgame.com/

I recently purchased a Dell XPS 420 and I love it. http://configure.us.dell.com/dellstore/config.aspx?c=us&cs=19&l=en&oc=DXDWQJ6&s=dhs I upgraded it to the 24" widescreen and got the Core2 Extreme (Quad Core) 3.0GHz 12Mb 1333Mhz FSB chip with 4 GB Ram. I also upgraded the graphics card to an...

Oops!!! Can't believe I left Cyberpunk 2020 and Shadowrun off of the list. :D And then there is Mutant Chronicles and Battlelords of the 23rd Century.

On Dawn of War: Soulstorm While I love the game they have GOT to fix the zoom with a patch. The maximum zoom out is more zoomed in than the previous games. Is it me or are the Necrons nerfed a bit? I started the Necron campaign last night and the first territory I went after had a level 3...

Favorite Sci-Fi? Hmmmmm.... good question! :) I love the Battletech universe (Inner Sphere/Clan War) so you could always locate a copy of Mechwarrior for that. It is easy to fall into the trap of focusing on the mech combat. Read a few of the novels to get an idea of what life is like in...

When I spent a year in South Korea at Osan AB the group I was in played 12-hour sessions on Saturday and Sunday. There is no official opinion of roleplaying. Obviously unofficially you may still get tagged as a geek but it generally isn't derogatory. All of the guys I played with over in...

Last night I picked up my old copy (v2.0) of Twilight:2000 and I got all nostalgic about it. I forgot how easy the core resolution system was and how easy (at least that is the way I remember it) the combat system could be while still maintaining the illusion of realism. God, how I'd love to...

I'd try to get my hands on Cyberpunk 2020. Adding new races is a piece of cake but the rules for technology (such as decking, cybernetics, and humanity loss) are already there. I also like the combat system better... very realistic and gritty. :)

I'm bumping because I am still looking for players. :)

Dawn of War: Soulstorm Battlefield: 2142 Supreme Commander

It is going pretty well. You might tell the other guys that if we were to get a Saturday game going we could play every other week. That way they would have alternating Saturdays with their families. I'm going to have to do that anyway... my wife would shoot me if I played EVERY Saturday...

Hey Travis, Do you think you or any of the guys would be interested in playing on alternating Saturday nights? -Chad

I've resurfaced this post as I am once again looking to start a new group in Woodbridge Virginia. Game schedule would be alternating Saturday evenings with a fairly concrete schedule (1st & 3rd Saturdays of the month or something like that). I find a solid schedule is best for married players...

I'm not arguing for or against the use of at will abilities... I'm simply stating that I believe it feels more like Diablo2 than WoW. :)

I'd suggest GURPS Space even if only to raid for ideas to incorporate into other systems.

Actually from personal in game experience I find that the T20 system works fine with the d20 rule set. With the reworking of the combat system character survivability has very little to do with level. They allow for the Obi-Wan and Luke variety of experience levels that you normally can't get...

Depends on what you want. Do you want hard sci-fi with rules on trading commodities by making interplanetary runs or something more like Star Wars where space ship combat is for some unknown reason run like World War 2 dogfights? For hard sci-fi I'd run with Traveller T20. Character creation...

I've never played WoW but to me D&D4E seems more like Diablo 2. When I'd play a low level Diablo 2 Paladin I'd make my default attack the Zeal power rather than a normal sword/scepter attack. It kinda goes along with the 4E idea that you never make a normal basic attack unless it is an AoO...

Honestly doing away with skill point allocation is what sold me on 4E.

I'll allow them. I warmed up to the idea of draconian-type PC core races while playing Arcana Evolved. I like the Mojh and the Dracha so I'll probably allow the Dragonborn. :)
