    Genesys: All the Star Wars goodness, without all the Star Wars lameness...

    It's pretty much an RPGnet darling, but with very good reason; the thing just sings at the table. I'm slowly putting together a few ideas for it (especially a Roman Republic campaign) and I love how the dice work. I ran a Star Wars campaign before and really like how the system moves. In fact...

    D&D 5E How OLD are YOU

    I'll be 42 in 5 weeks. Been gaming since '86 I think, started with Red and Blue Box, but quickly moved to AD&D, then to 2nd, which was my most played version of D&D. Played a ton of games since, including a bit of 3.0 and a reading of PF. Now back to D&D with 5e, and running my first D&D...

    Help me like D20 Modern/D20 Future/D20 Past

    Well, that was a time in my life when I shied away from complex systems. Nowadays, I just finished running GURPS and reading HERO before deciding on BW for my Star Wars game (and BW, with all its forge-ie aspects is a crunchy game). With my love of crunch renewed, I'm sort of hoping I'll dig D20...

    Help me like D20 Modern/D20 Future/D20 Past

    Posted this on RPG.net, but thought I might get a better response here: Okay, here's the deal. My wife got me these three books. I've been playing and GMing other things so I've only skimmed through, not really read them. So, I'm in the midst of planning a Star Wars campaign (gonna use Buring...
