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.

Your favorite game Help me push it or "sell" it...at the store I work at.

Heavy Gear is a game with giant robots, an anime-western feel, and a lot of really neat setting material that will give you ideas for dozens of different campaigns. If they like anime, westerns and giant robots, Heavy Gear will allow them to play games that combine all three without ever feeling cheesy or stupid.

FUDGE is a toolkit for building whatever game you've always wanted to play. It's highly customisable, so you can match it to whatever kind of game you want to play, whether that's hard sci-fi, modern adventure or high fantasy. It provides a good framework for building your own game, and many supplements (as well as the core rules) are available for free (FUDGE products mainly exist as records of various rule-sets people have put together using it). Free core rules means it's easy for everyone to have a copy of them, rather than having to buy more PHBs or share the ones you've got.

Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay is a low-to-middling complexity system that pits fantasy Germanic renaissance-era characters against horrific inhuman entities that seek to dominate the world. Heroism is often defined as the courage to face seemingly insurmountable odds because the alternative is too terrible to contemplate. Mud, blood, shit and gore all feature prominently, as does dark humor and insanity.
