Ironically I met my wife playing D&D and now she hates D&D (but loves other rpgs). I would say its some sorta weird combination between the guys on the TV in the war room moving the little figures around on one hand and on the other hand the guys who dress up and do improv theater in the...

Well for magic my personal inclination would be to make it like Mage only with something other than pardox as backlash. Each school is an arcana and individual spells are rotes. The only thing you would have to write yourself is how drain/mana points/whatever would work. Personally I would go...

I would talk to Mr. Gone about possibly getting a custom sheet once the design is done. You may also want to look at some similar systems like Hollowed Earth Expedition, Shadowrun 4e, and Desolation.

A Cyberpunk game using Ubiquity (Ok almost any new game using Ubiquity)

Unknown Armies...

First off Magic is way easier to run than D&D. Second if I were running a GM training class I would pick some various source material. Ghost Cartels (Shadowrun), Kingmaker (Piazo), The Burning Wheel [possibly Mouseguard], to name a few I would go through.

nevermind

The Street Samurai Catalog at the Walden Books... I didn't know what it was but I had to have it.

I would go cafe first, gaming store second. Personally I would open a bar/gaming store, mostly because one of the biggest problems I have with LGS is their reluctance to throw people out. A few have gotten better but its hard to introduce people to the hobby when the first thing you smell is...

Nerps but I cant seam to find the link.

Well if the amount of PMs I have been getting about my WFRP 3 videos on youtube are any indication. There are more new groups out there forming up who have never played a pnp rpg before than I would have thought.

Whatever topic she is into would be the #1 choice. Baring that I have always said if anyone watched Lord of the Rings (PJ films) and then read Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay 2e (just the core book) they would already be ready to run their first game. Anything from White-Wolf also gets a nod just...

I like the system but I feel the books are horrible because they are not written with complete examples and expect you to have knowledge of the previous chapters. They also either put the information in a chart or the text not both and sometimes reference cards without putting the information on...

Mouseguard is Burning Wheel light with some tweaks. Both are amazing games, if you want more crunchy details go with Burning Wheel, if you want something with less cruchy details go with Mouseguard.

1. Desolation 2. Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay 2e 3. One Ring (not yet out but I'm hoping)

For Shadowrun we all had laptops and IM, but playing in the future this didnt break any suspension of disbelief that I would have say playing D&D, Dark Ages Vampire, or Call of Cthuhlu.

/This Also knowing your players stats can be important for a good sword fight. So if your Fighter has a d10 the BBEG right hand guy may have a D12 etc. Personaly, I find the CR system to be largely fictional to begin with as I have seen a Balor killed by a party of lvl 1s and Kobolds take out a...

I would have a conversation with your group as a whole. Saying you want more action less talking. Seams like the issue is with the GM not with the group. Also tell them that your just not enjoying WFRP because you want more fights and you dont want to do something you dont enjoy so if you cant...

Couple things 1. Savage Worlds is designed for fast, furious, fun. If you like your combats to take an hour this is not the game for you. If you want to be able to do some nifty combat maneuvers for 3 rounds and then move on with the story Savage Worlds MAY be for you. 2. If you like minis I...
