Not much, sadly.

Shadowrun 3rd Edition
Rifts (only part of a session, it got cut off early and the GM never continued past that session)

Yeah, that's all besides D&D and related systems. It sucks. But I've rarely met anyone else with other games (besides White Wolf ones, which I won't touch), let alone a willingness to run a game, let alone the reliability to actually go through with running the game.
 


  1. Paranoia XP (The best RPG ever.)
  2. Champions
  3. Legend of the 5 Rings (2nd)
  4. Traveller T20 (I'm not counting this a D20 because of it's many, many changes.
  5. D20 Modern (In a d20 Future Firefly kind of setting), Omega World, and Call of Cuthulu d20
  6. Shadowrun (4th)

Unfortunately, I've read more good RPGs than I've had a chance to play. (Alternity, TSR's Marvel Super-Heros RPG, and LUG's ST:TNG to name a few.)

Wouldn't this fall under variant of d20 since it is an OGL game that took d20, stripped it down and built it back up? If not, add it to my list. The second edition is, currently, my favorite rpg.

Yeah, I should probably take it down, but it seemed sufficiently different to me to include it. I also listed Star Wars d20, which I will go remove right now, heh.
