This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

One Horse Town

Dragon Warriors on the book-shelf to my left and Talislanta 4e on the chair - 'cos i'm constantly leafing through it, wishing i could get a game going.

Never noticed it before. But the map key of Brubecks in GURPS Traveller starports lists the 'Beer reconstitution' units.

Beer, you don't drink it, you just recycle it.

Nearest to me is the Cyberpunk 2020 book: it is sitting on the kitchen table because I forgot to put it away.

THe Turakian Age for Fantasy Hero (Hero System). I'm running a twice monthly game on sundays.
I can dig it.....a little bit.

At home it's directly beneath the seat of my computer chair. I've got a stack of CP books there from our last session - been running a CP2020 campaign (my last ever) for 18 months now.

Amber Diceless RPG is on top of my bed, and the Earthdawn core books are next on the bookshelf.

Right now I'm at home... and I'm going to have to measure...

It's Rikki Tikki Trav Core Rulebook.

stu2000

To my left, on the coffee table, a short stack of Fudge 10th, /Basic Roleplaying, and my shiny new b&w SpyCraft, replacing the snazzy color one that fell apart. Equidistant to my right is a teetering stack of Metal Magic and Lore books and binders.  Clearly, I need to tidy up the place. As I putter about, the statistics will change.

Back at home now, and the closest book to the computer is a tie between Amber and Shadow Knight.

Warthur

Dark Heresy and The Inquisitor's Handbook. Heroquest (the Issaries/Glorantha one by Stafford and Laws, not the Games Workshop/Milton Bradley one) is sitting next to them, but only because when my Dark Heresy came around for our pre-game dinner he pulled Heroquest off the shelf to take a look at it.
I am no longer posting here or reading this forum because Pundit has regularly claimed credit for keeping this community active. I am sick of his bullshit for reasons I explain here and I don\'t want to contribute to anything he considers to be a personal success on his part.

I recommend The RPG Pub as a friendly place where RPGs can be discussed and where the guiding principles of moderation are "be kind to each other" and "no politics". It\'s pretty chill so far.

At home.  Dark Heresy is closest, because we played it night before last (my Assassin rocks out), and it's still out on the floor.

T. Foster

On a 10" high shelf just above my monitor, about 18" away, are my D&D white-box & supplements, Traveller box (w/ approx. 100 supplements & magazines from GDW, FASA, Paranoia Press, Gamelords, Digest Group, BITS and Sword of the Knight), and the Phoenix Games edition of Bushido. Another nearby shelf has a bunch of bookcase-sized games, including my RuneQuest III Deluxe Edition box. All my other rpg stuff is in milkcrates or boxes stacked up in the closet.

Cerulean Lion

Nearest to me right now is a Kingdoms of Kalamar supplement, the Villain Design Handbook.
Beyond that I have Star Wars Saga Edition lying on a chair across the room.
