[QUOTE="timbannock, post: 3602204, member: 17913"] [B]Wildside Gaming System: Fantasy Roleplay Edition[/B] Yeah, I helped playtest it, and it's pretty much the worst thing I've ever played. During playtesting, my group gave it the nickname CARPS: Crappy-A$$ Role-Playing System. AtAmazon [url]http://www.amazon.com/Wildside-Gaming-System-Fantasy-Role-Playing/dp/0809511142[/url] (note the very first 1-star review...that's from one of the playtesters) The new page at Amazon is oddly lacking the reviews... (good or bad) [url]http://www.amazon.com/Wildside-Gaming-System-Fantasy-Role-Playing/dp/1557425310[/url] Also check out their website [url]http://www.wildsidegame.com/index.htm[/url] Especially the forums [url]http://wildsidepress.secure-shops8.com/cgi-bin/ubbcgi/forumdisplay.cgi?action=topics&forum=The+Wildside+Gaming+System&number=9&DaysPrune=100&LastLogin=[/url] Note that there are only about 3 people posting there...one of them the author...and yet this game's been out for about 2-3 years now. They are doing a new edition...for all 2 players??? I have so many other bad things that I could say about this game, but I won't. For now. Other odd-ball games I own/play: Tribe 8 2nd Edition (Dream Pod 9) Jovian Chronicles 2nd Edition (Dream Pod 9) Cadwallon (Rackham) Marvel Universe (Marvel Comics) In Nomine (Steve Jackson) A Game of Thrones (Guardians of Order) PARANOIA XP (Mongoose) Robotech RPG, Sentinels RPG, Macross II RPG (Palladium) Serenity RPG (Margaret Weiss) Mekton Zeta (R Talsorian) GURPS Discworld (Steve Jackson) ....and one of my personal favorites: [B]Tales from the Floating Vagabond[/B] [/QUOTE]
