[QUOTE="aramis erak, post: 9340941, member: 6779310"] I don't have a "regular ruleset." I rotate through a half-dozen, with occasional others for effect. The very question is broken in that it leaves no room for multiple-system groups. within the scope of games I've run multiple campaigns of Very Satisfied: Alien, Pendragon 4th ed, The One Ring 1st ed, Legend of the Five RIngs 5th edition (not the D&D knockoff, but the FFG edition), Dune. Satisfied: Twilight 2000 4th edition, Talisman Adventurs, Star Trek Adventures, Prime Directive 1st edition But none of those are my "regular system" - I've not had a singular regular system since about fall 1984... And all of them are customized to the setting, and [I]cannot be divorced from it in the analysis[/I]. See, Alien and Vaesen are both d6 pool count success Year Zero Engine games... but Vassen only gets to somewhat satisfied, while alien is very satisfied... but I'd not use Alien's mechanics for Trek — just wouldn't be a good fit. And since I choose games based upon fit of setting and mechanics... and change settings about thrice a year... in each of two groups, and seldom both on the same one... that's six different systems per year.
