[QUOTE="hawkeyefan, post: 7861432, member: 6785785"] Yeah, I don't think there's one game or system that is the best for everything. But in the OP, Morrus specifically said that the criteria for best is up to the poster. It was simply a conversation starter. What game is the best, and how is it the best. He even pointed out there can be no wrong answer. I disagree with the last part a bit because I think not giving an answer is the only way to be wrong. So I was encouraging people to offer something to the convo. People saying "there is no best"....I mean, okay cool, I agree.....but it just doesn't do much for the discussion. But neither does my nitpicking about it, so I'll shut up about it. To offer another example, I have to say that I really like the Momentum mechanic in Modiphius's Star Trek game a lot. I think it's one of the best team based mechanics I've seen. I'm not so crazy about a lot of the other parts of the game, but I'm also not a huge Trek guy, so I'm sure that's a big part of the game's appeal that's lost on me. But Momentum and how it works is very cool. [/QUOTE]
