[QUOTE="Poppyseed45, post: 9181647, member: 7035720"] I think it's pretty good. Back in the day, I ran a lot of BRP (Runequest 2nd, Elfquest, Stormbringer and Elric, CoC). I've also run Mythras stuff. That said, I haven't run BRP by itself, though I have the BGB, and now have the UGE in my hands. I'm currently running a campaign in Savage Worlds which is going well, but I think when this is done in six months I'll switch to something in BRP. I like the "grittier" feel; I know you can emulate this in SW, but I feel BRP just gets it right. I'm also realizing I don't really like Feats/Edges/Talents or whatever they're called in various games. Passions are right up my alley, and being able to model certain social things with a percentile list (like Politics in a Rome game or Status in many others) is something I can really convey easily and set up on the fly if needed. I also hate, HATE, counting money in games (and this is where Mythras can lose me); BRP defaults to not doing that, which I appreciate. If they just had a mass combat system, all would be well (as it is, I will adapt SW's). [/QUOTE]
