Thanks for the link, that game looks cool.

No, I don't want anything ruined for anyone. I just think if that they're going to go this direction that it would be more interesting to me to see it for 40KRP rather than WFRP. I mean, they've already produced Descent (with special dice, a board and minis), and it's got to be hard for any...

Yes. It is one of the design characteristics that I like so much about Savage Worlds. A finite amount of information is better for me. I learned in 2e that I really don't want to run something beyond a core game. For 2e, that meant PHB for me & the players, and DMG + MM + Dungeon for me as...

Having watched the video and havign played WFRP & Descent; it still looks to me like they're making WFRP more like Descent. I was also struck that I would be more interested in this type of RPG if it were for 40K, preferably with minis included (like Descent). But, 40KRP has a new line of more...

Savage Worlds as a game system had the biggest "wow" factor for me. It really is an elegant system. The different die types are intuitive for me to understand advancement, and I really like the use of chips for bennies & cards for initiative. Once I read it, I couldn't wait to play it. Tour...

Having played WFRP and Descent, I'm not eager for the new WFRP. Maybe my try at 4e this evening will ocnvince me otherwise, but I think I'm becoming a grognard.

Omega World d20 is my favorite 3e supplement. It really captures the feel of the old Gamma World game. And, it does it about 40 pages. I would play it again in a heartbeat. It even beat out DragonStar for me; and I really liked DS, too. Judge Dredd d20 is another 3rd party book that took...

Yeah, it's a bummer when game night gets cancelled. My group is not where I would like them to be on several fronts right now anyway, though; so it's a little easier to take when a game is cancelled or when I can't attend--both of which happened to me in 2 of the past the past 3 weeks. Now, I...

Tweet understands old school gaming. Check out Omega World d20. It is a brilliantly succint homage to Gamma World using the 3e rules.

I love it. Much easier for me to track as a GM. I may port it over to several other games. It feels more dynamic, too.

Yes, 3.0 is playable. In fact, I refuse to convert my old 3.0 game to 3.5. I also still love a couple of the 3.0 spin-offs: Omega World d20 (brilliant!) and Judge Dredd d20 (honourable mention). I would be more likely to keep 3.0 than 3.5. But, I would run a 3.5 game, too. Core books only...

In my alternate Star Wars, the heroes are sent on a secret mission to recover two droids on their planet of Tatooine. They are to deliver the droids to Bail Organa on Alderaan. Thus begins their assumption of the roles of the characters in A New Hope. What they know is that the Republic has...

I currently use a wooden box that opens flat. I lined the inside with adhesive felt. So, my dice rest on one side and roll on the other. That system took over the octagon which was just too big to carry with dice that still had to be gotten out of a bag. But, either is preferable to...

Very cool. I like that "Blood n' Grit" has rules for character advancement. That is the piece that is missing from DDM, as far as I can tell. Anyone have any advancement rules for DDM? Is that in the Miniatures Handbook?

Has anyone used DDM as an RPG? I am intrigued by it as the DDM stats are about as much complexity as I want for most foes in combat. Using the DDM system for an RPG would be great for me as a DM. I would be more free to develop the story without getting mired in the math. I am just not sure...

Tour of Darkness has been my favorite military RPG. It is a Weird Wars setting for the Savage Worlds game. The plot point campaign is mysticism in Viet Nam. I used some of it, but my campaign really diverted off into some different directions. It was really fun for the time we played it...

Savage Worlds. Just watch out and don't let it ruin you for other games; or ruin other games for you. You can even try it for free: http://www.peginc.com/Downloads/SWEX/TD06.pdf

Savage Worlds is awesome. Just be careful, it might ruin you for other games (or vice versa). Yeah, it's that good. You can even try it free: http://www.peginc.com/Downloads/SWEX/TD06.pdf ORK! might be another little one you might enjoy reading, based on your ID.

Omega World d20 gets my top nod for post-apoc goodness. It really captures the flavor of the very classic Gamma World game very succinctly. It's only about 40 pages in the Polyhedron side of Dungeon #94. You can still find it on the used market. It very concisely presents enough tweaks to...

That is strong on all counts: system, setting & environment.
