[QUOTE="Psion, post: 5196758, member: 172"] For me: [B]Mongoose Traveller[/B]: A nice take on a classic SF system. Slick, easy to use, gritty, with a character generation sequence that provides interesting backstories, helps connect the characters, and (despite being random) makes sure that the group covers the basics. [b]FATE 3.0[/b] and its many instances: [b]Spirit of the Century[/b] - Heroic pulp adventure. [b]Diaspora[/b] - Hard(ish*) gritty SF. [b]Starblazer Adventures[/b] - Based on the UK comic of the same name, the system is build for high adventure space opera a la the new Star Trek movie. there are others, including the forthcoming [B]Dresden Files[/B] game, but none that I have played. [b]Danger Patrol[/b] - Heroic Retro-SF in the vein of Flash Gordon and Buck Rogers. This one is actually in open beta, and you can get the beta pdf here: [url=http://www.dangerpatrol.com/]Danger Patrol - Action/Adventure Roleplaying in the World of Tomorrow[/url] [B]Spycraft 2.0[/B] and [B]Fantasy Craft[/B]. Yeah, they're d20 OGL, but as they are 2nd and 3rd generation derivatives and neither bears the d20 logo, I'm defying your restriction. :cool: [B]Spycraft 2.0[/B] is a flexible system for high octane modern action. [B]Fantasy Craft[/B] is also a nice highly flexible fantasy system. I used it to run a Dying Earth/Zothique-esque Sword & Sorcery setting. See my sig for details on the Freeport campaign I'm running using it. [/QUOTE]
