[QUOTE="Wombat, post: 3798904, member: 8447"] Recently our group ran a short campaign (four episodes) of [I]All Flesh Must Be Eaten[/I] -- this is fun for character generation and for a session or two, but gets repetitive very quickly unless the GM is really on his toes. Before that we ran [I]Ars Magica[/I] for about a year -- I love this game! And if you poke around, you can still find the 4th edition of the rules free as a pdf on the Net, such as here: [url]http://e23.sjgames.com/item.html?id=AG0204[/url] Our next game up is going to be an old setting of mine, New Mavarga, retooled using a variant of the [I]7th Sea[/I] rules -- the rules are great for swashbuckling, but I loathe the world of Theah, so this is a near-perfect match! ;) Over 30 years of gaming, I have played under at least a dozen of rules sets -- [I]OD&D, Metamorphosis Alpha, Empire of the Petal Throne, The Fantasty Trip, Chivalry & Sorcery, Traveller, RuneQuest, AD&D, GURPS, Champions, Harnmaster, Golden Heroes, FASA Star Trek, World of Darkness[/I] (old version, mainly [I]Mage[/I]), [I]Paranoia [/I](various versions), Pendragon, [I]Cyberpunk [/I](and [I]Cyberpunk 2.0.2.0[/I]), [I]Over the Edge, Ars Magica[/I] (2nd-5th editions), [I]D&D 3e, Burning Wheel,[/I] and the abovementioned game... I have no system loyalty and constantly look for the rules that best match the setting, rather than forcing a setting to conform to the rules at hand. [/QUOTE]
