So how many different game systems have you tried?

That One Guy

First Post
...some X:The Y White Wolf products that I don't remember buying sitting on my shelf waiting to get used.
Which ones? Any Demon? Or Changeling? ...how attached to these books are you?

Games I've played/run... I'll forget some, and anything at cons from back when I went I won't recall.

oWoD games Vampire, Dark Ages Vampire, Hunter, and... I thought there was something else? I have a few nWoD books, and I ran a homebrew game that featured skypirates and rules stolen from the books. 4e, and the 3.x stuff. SR current and last. Played a few home brew systems of friends. Munchkin, M:tG, etc. count for this?

I own some books, pdfs, etc. for games I've never played - and probably won't ever get around to it.

I crit!
Here are the ones I'm sure of.

Jorune
Stormbringer.
Classic Traveller.
GURPS starting with the boxed edition thru 4th.
Star Frontiers
Boot Hill
Call of Cthulhu
Top Secret
James Bond 007
TMNT

D&D red box basic/expert (my intro to rpgs), AD&D 1st/2nd, 3.5, 4.0, WoW rpg 3.5, D20 Modern.
Gamma World
savage worlds
D6

There are others. For a while a friend of mine was running through lots of different rpgs and I don't remember most of them. I've played games in Cons that I'm sure are not on the above list, but I don't remember their names.

I love these kinds of threads.

A couple, but not many:

- D&D (BECMI, 2e, 3.xe, 4e)
- Cyberpunk
- Mekton
- Fuzion
- Palladium's Robotech
- L5R
- Star Wars d6
- Tri-Stat
- Twilight 2000

Other than D&D, Cyberpunk, Mekton, and Fuzion, the rest I found so bad as to be virtually unplayable.

Needless to say, I stick with D&D 3.5 and Fuzion these days (and into the forseeable future).

I just went through the big list of RPGs at John Kim's site here:

RPG Encyclopedia Entries:

and ended up with 75 systems that I have run/played ta least one session of. Of those 75, I've run/played story arcs/campaigns (8 - 50+ sessions) in 27 systems.

Of course, I started in 1976, so I've had a while to try lots of systems out. I'm also probably not typical of folks on this site sine I just started playing D&D again recently (4E) after a 25 year hiatus.

SKyOdin

D&D 2E (some late TSR Basic rules Box Set)

D&D 3E and 3.5

D&D 4E (current favorite)

D20 Modern

Iron Heroes

Alternity

Champions (not sure on edition, 5th maybe?)


I haven't been playing as long as some other people, so I don't have as big of a list.

I'm not gonna try to list everything; I can't remember them all. But a few things I know I've played that aren't on other lists (or I overlooked them) include:

Space 1889
The Fantasy Trip (actually helped playtest the first version of this game)
DragonQuest
Metamorphosis Alpha

We played just about every version of DnD, starting with the white box set, and almost all of TSR's games (except Alternity).

Many versions of Traveler.

I wish I could think of all the other short-lived games I've played. There were many back in my days of hanging out at the game store every weekend!

My shelves have a couple dozen different tabletop systems - and that's not counting different editions of the same game, and the various systems I've played for which I don't own my own copy of the rules.

So, a bunch.
