[QUOTE="Umbran, post: 6708659, member: 177"] Some folks are one-game players, or are perhaps serial mono-game-ists, that at any given time, they only play one game, until they make some major switch, and then play only one other game. I am not such a person. I am, if you will, poly-game-ist. I will generally play any game for which I have time, if I like the general premise and the people playing. The system is one of my least concerns, honestly. I will run virtually any system - my ideas of fun are not restricted to merely pseudo-medieval fantasy, and I tend to look for the game that best supports the genre and style of game I am going to run. I just finished off running a 4+ year classic Deadlands campaign, I'm following it with a short arc of the FATE-based Atomic Robo, and then will probably start Ashen Stars for that group, as several of them are already involved with or a bit tired of generic fantasy campaigns. I am considering setting up a separate 5e campaign, possibly to play through some of WotC's major adventure offerings, if I can find folks who are going to commit to a regular schedule of play for that. So, my answer is that I come from *everywhere*, but I'm not actually staying fixed on one game. [/QUOTE]
