I just got back from GenCon, and I make it a goal to try different systems every time I attend a convention.
Here are some that I tried this time that I enjoyed. Feel free to add yours in this thread....
1) Pirate Borg (Mork Borg): fast character creation, simple rules (but based on d20 so it's familiar), very flavorful.
2) Zweihander: it really played like a streamlined Warhammer Fantasy. I thoroughly enjoyed the session.
3) Mother Ship: fast character creation, simple rules (percentage based), flexible skill choices (pick a skill and attribute you think are relevant - and the GM decides), interesting random charts that give lots of flavor
4) Vaesen: another Year Zero game by Free League - and I haven't been disappointed yet. Dice rolling and damage is simpler than Forbidden Lands. Would work great for any supernatural mystery game (a la Cthulhu).
