[QUOTE="Dyson Logos, post: 4813295, member: 83678"] I avoided your thread at CM on this topic on the basis that I can't stand the choice of terminology. "Traditional" to me isn't the opposite of "Wahoo". By your definitions, Blackmoor is Wahoo, whereas I see it as traditional. "Wahoo" has been used for years as a definition of a style of Gamma World play that is non-gritty, non-realistic, and based around a fun, loose playstyle. Omega World was the best example of this end of Wahoo Gamma World play. I think you need to define the terms in a way that doesn't impact on what is already accepted terminology. That aside, I like them both. I like games that use a pseudo-historical medieval environment (I'm a fan of WHFRP which I guess would fit closely to what you have listed as "Traditional"). But I also really enjoy games in more fantastic environments like Blackmoor with it's crashed spaceships and all that goodness. [/QUOTE]
