Numenera, Legend in the Mist and Barbarians of Lemuria Mythic + Edition, Conan The Hyborian Age, Nimble, The Cosmere RPG, Fantasy Age 2e, Daggerheart, Draw Steel are my picks.

Ooooh, those Sid Meier's Pirates! influences sound delicious! Exactly what I'd be looking for. I am obsessed with age of sail swashbuckling and such.

Thanks!

I'd still go with TotV if for nothing else, to keep from giving my cash to WotC.

I have Pirate Borg and also backed their Dark Caribbean Kickstarter. I just can't ever find a game to join. How much do I have to pay you to run it in an online campaign and allow me to play in it? Pirates of the Caribbean + The Evil Dead = sign me up!

Legend in the Mist is quite possibly my favorite fantasy game overall, alongside Barbarians of Lemuria Mythic + and Conan The Hyborian Age. I've played some sessions and enjoyed it immensely.

The Cosmere RPG is fantastic.

If you had to pick just 1 between those 2, which would it be? I assume Tales of the Valiant hews closer to straight-out 5e.

I own the 2e for Hyperborea, Astonishing Swordsmen and Sorcerers of Hyperborea, and the 3e Hyperborea. Al though it is pretty good overall, my players did not enjoy nearly as much as I did. They are not as into the AD&D-type mechanics. I prefer Barbarians of Lemuria Mythic + for barbaric...

I say this because Draw Steel clearly states 4e as its primary influence, and the game's mechanics demonstrate this throughout. Daggerheart states it is their answer to 5e.

Nimble is the way. I am enamored with Nimble. Such a bargain for the boxed set. I'm sooooo happy I purchased it.

I am very curious about the various D&D/D20 fantasy alternatives/derivatives/adjacent games out there that are pretty popular right now. I even own several. I am wondering which is your personal favorite? Convince the rest of us why your favorite is the best! Examples include: DC20 Nimble Draw...

I'd like to suggest LowLife 2090 and Neon Skies.

Can you take on Gothic threats in this and not just Mythos monsters? Stuff like vampires, werewolves, etc?

Barely been up on KS an hour or so and already over 2 million pledged.

I have it and have considered it, but I watched a review that claimed it is missing a lot of monster types in its bestiary and that the rules are kind of half-baked, not clear in some places. I should pull it down and read it.

I'm likely going to be running a monster hunter campaign in the near future and I'm trying to capture the tone of the tv show Supernatural with a bit of X-Files-style investigation. So far I have narrowed my potential candidates list down to Monster of the Week (Evil Hat Productions) or...

I seem to remember there being a sourcebook for the vampire counts that detailed their lands and had adventures for that region and such, maybe even a campaign. I think it was for WFRP 2e, but I'm not completely sure. I'd love to run something like this in WVRP 4e. Does anyone know what...

Is Shadowdark completely built for dungeon crawls, or can you do outdoor adventuring all types of fantasy with it?

After the WotC fiascos, many companies decided to develop their own in-house alternative D&D 5e rulesets that are based on the skeleton of D&D 5e. I recently picked up Tales of the Valiant by Kobold Press, formerly known as Project Black Flag, but haven't gotten to read it yet. I am curious...
