[QUOTE="Holy Bovine, post: 490088, member: 203"] 3E D&D simply because it is the game that has launched a thousand ships - and not all of them belong to WotC. It seems to me that 3E has brought about a resurgence in RPG publishing and companies - hell even [b]I[/b] got a small bit published in Relics & Rituals 2 from Sword & Sorcery Studios! Classic/Black Book Traveller - played this for years during junior and senior high school. Blasting aliens and Imperial Dog Soldiers (ever read Micronauts from the 70's/80's? those Dog Soldiers) while exploring new planets (and inevitably crashing on them) was never so much fun. i have more Traveller books than any other game except D&D (all editions combined however, taken individually I probably have more Classic Traveller) Call of Cthulhu - 4th & 5th edition. I played 3rd edtion once or twice but it was a little too bare bones for my taste 4th and 5th really fleshed out the game and made it a viable campaign based RPG. Shadowrun 3E - played 2E but didn't care for it much - the streamlining and rule fixes make 3E the edition to get - the fact that it is fully compatible with all 2E Shadowrun stuff is a nice touch. Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay - second only to D&D (and a very close second at that). A great atmosphere that is fully complimented by the ruleset (PCs are tough as nails in their later careers but there is still the small chance that a lowly goblin can kill them with a hand thrown rock - makes combat the [i]last[/i] resort in many cases). Oh yeah there is only one edition [i]becasue that's all it ever needed[/i] ;) Thieves World - thanks to Corthian for reminding me of this one. While I have over the years lost my Thieves World rule book it was always a huge favourite of mine. I love thieves and have used ideas from TW in all-thief campaigns I have run in the past. Those are about my all time favs. I may have left out some but these are the ones that I'll drop any other game to get a chance at playing. [/QUOTE]
