[QUOTE="Gallo22, post: 1248352, member: 11325"] Let me tell you about Heavy Gear. It is a great rpg. Now please don't think of mechs (called gears in Heavy Gear) running around and thats all you do is battle. HG has a very detailed history and background for any type of story you can think of. Right now my group of former "naysayers" to trying this game are playing a very fun adventure called The Paxton Gambit, and adventure produced by the makers of HG and it's all adventure and role-play. Getting this adventure alone with the basic rules (2nd edition) will give you 4-6 months of gaming, if you game once a week. The players play a group of "police officers" that get entangled in a web of deceipt from numerous parties and have to unweave the mess while keeping alive. Their is alot of roleplay and tons of gun battles, but it's also a thinking "gamers" game. They are police officers after all...but not just average officers. We have a SWAT sniper, demolition expert, ex-gear pilot (will come in handy durning the adventure), K-9 officer with dawg (lizard creature), hot-shot young driver with 2 guns a blazing, and of course and internal affairs type. This is a very fun sci-fi adventure. The rules are simple to learn yet detailed in application. The action is fast and death can come quick for those gamers who don't keep their head. Please check it out. It is a very under used game out there and is one of the best I've ever played in my 30 years of gaming. You won't regret it. THE BEST PART IS YOU DON'T NEED TO BUY A TON OF BOOKS!!!!!!!!!! UNLESS YOU WANT TO. Gallo22 [/QUOTE]
