d20 versus non d20

[MonsterMash]

More non-d20 including lots of other RPGs from the old days.

More non-D20 - but the D20 books are gaining... Give it a couple of years and I'd answer the other way. I'd guess I've got roughly 50 D20 and 70-80 other books.

The non D20 stuff - there's a lot of Shadowrun, piles of dusty AD&D, a half dozen (recently acquired) old boxed sets and a large number of games with 1 or 2 books - either because that's all you needed or I was just trying the game out/curious/etc.

Crothian, if you don't mind me asking: how large is your book collection?

Looking at the Shelving - d20 by about half a shelf.

Non-d20 is largely cruising due to a moderate addiction to Vampire books throughout the nineties, and may well take over in the next three years if my current buying habits are any indication.

I voted more d20, but I have to say that I only just sneak into that category. I'm pretty picky about the things I purchase (and keep!) so I have roughly the same number of OD&D, AD&D, 2e, Rifts, WoD (Old), for each system as I have d20 books (I'd say a dozen for each system, just slightly snaked by the 18 d20 books I own).

That said, I pretty much only buy d20 now (except for the new WoD core rules).

 

[Keeper of Secrets]

I have more non d20 because for as long as I have been gaming, the amount of stuff I have had and owned before d20 came out is quite a large set of books.

If you had two African Swallows could they carry the one book if they carried it by a piece of sweet grass inserted along the back binding ????

I think this is an age discriminating poll

With 29+ years of gaming behind me, even with all the cool d20 stuff, I still have more non-d20 stuff. I have 30+ LBB (little black books) for Classic Traveller, before I start counting other Traveller books, MegaTraveller, D&D, AD&D, 2e AD&D.

Well, you don't have to be that old to own large amounts of 1e/2e stuff (although I'm sure definitions of large are relative).

I have more GURPS stuff alone than d20 books. Then there are my stacks of AD&D 2e books, and my Heavy Gear, Shadowrun, Fading Suns, and Call of Cthulhu collections...

 

[Staffan]

I have like 50 or less d20 books (I counted them for another thread recently - not including printed-out PDFs). Given that I was into gaming for about 15 years before the release of 3e, my d20 collection is totally dwarfed by my non-d20 collection, which includes a complete Dark Sun collection, near-complete collections of Al-Qadim and Spelljammer, about 40 core 2e books, a smattering of Forgotten Realms and Planescape things, not to mention all my non-D&D gaming books like 15ish Exalted books, some Earthdawn, various Swedish RPGs, and a lot more stuff I can't recall at the moment (it's in storage anyway ).
