Time and place are no issue. You can be either player or GM. You can play a game RIGHT NOW. What is it?

For me, right now... I'd play a Labyrinth Lord game. You?

Well, I'm about to start running Horror on the Orient Express, so that's taken care of.

I'd really, really like to play Burning Wheel, though.

Play: Legacy of Fire AP in Pathfinder 3.5 (I loved me some Alchemist fire!)
Run: Carrion Crown AP. (Something about horror themed Pathfinder RPG works for me)
Play: Something a friend has cooked up using older material converted to either Pathfinder RPG or 4th edition.

OK. Just to clarify in case I wasn't clear: I'm not asking you guys what you're playing on the week-ends or what not. If you were able to play anything -right now-, what would you play? Right now as in: right this second. Now. :)

Mekton 2
D6 Star Wars
Tunnels & Trolls 7.5

Honorable mention goes to Call of Cthulhu naturally.  New Delta Green book just got released.

To be honest, I'd like to be playing in a game that I was running. No one caters to my tastes more than me. :) Probably Burning Wheel or perhaps this Diaspora one-shot that I've been working on.

Failing that, an absolutely kick-ass AD&D dungeon crawl with a fiendishly clever but fair GM and 5th-7th level characters would be groovy.

No, and you can post several times, whenever you feel like it, with different answers, if you want to.

Right now, I'd love to run Ptolus again. With Pathfinder rules, maybe. Or 4E, with a post-apocalyptic bend to the whole setting.

Oh, I forgot to mention Diaspora.

But my current players aren't really into scifi.  :(

Well, two of them would play, but the other few were all grumpy the last time I suggested scifi.  They're prettymuch into fantasy and horror, and that's about it.

I have a fairly sweet, intricate Heroscape board layed out on my game table at the moment. A couple years ago, I took several of the more medieval fantasy looking figures and statted them, their armor, and their weapons for Metal, Magic, and Lore. I could conceive of a reasonably complex tactical scenario in about ten minutes, call a few friends in five minutes, switch out the necessary figures in ten minutes, dig up that character file and set up the game in another five minutes, and be ready to play before the friends could get snacks and be here.

But they would probably rather play Tunnels and Trolls. Which is cool, I guess.

I'm glad I have friends. :)

Icons is at the top of my fancy list at the moment.  God bless Adamant for showing you can still make a complete game in just 128 pages with big lettering and plenty of pictures.

I'd be happy to play all sort s of game right this minute, but Icons is what I'd run right now.

Or maybe some Brighthammer.

Houseruled WFRP 2e (+20% to all stats for everyone) in a different setting - Wilderlands, Karameikos as it appears in B/X1, Caverns of Thracia or something similar. I'm itching to see how the houserule plays in a door-kicking, monster-fighting game.

Right now I'd run (new) World of Darkness. Werewolf: the Forsaken, or Hunter: the Vigil.

And I'd play Mage: the Awakening or Vampire: the Requiem. Or some non-D&D fantasy, like HARP or WFRP2e or MRQ2 or D&D4e. ;) Or BASH UE.

Told you I have gaming ADHD. :o

Dark Sun. I'd use the 4e fluff*, and either the 4e rules or my house ruled version 0e with the psionic rules from Caracosa.




*Which is nearly identical to the pre-revised 2e stuff, actually, but presented in a manner that I find more useful/enjoyable- i.e. not " in character."

I'd love to play a game I normally run like Spycraft or Fantasy Craft. They have killer chargen systems and I'd love to use it instead of just seeing it be used!

I'd also love to play Danger Patrol again.

I have a bit of a hankering to run a Pathfinder game in Scarred Lands or a game of Diaspora.

I'd love to play in a D&D game from the Basic lineage.

I'm gearing up to run something fantasy using Savage Worlds.  The first setting to really catch my attention was something called 50 Fathoms, which is sort of a magical fantasy/pirate setting.  Unfortunately, the books haven't been updated for the current edition of the rules and dead tree copies are prohibitively expensive.  I settled on a different setting called Sundered Skies, which is post-apocalyptic fantasy based on the idea that the actual world blew up and is now composed of floating islands.  I was surprised by how much I actually liked the setting after I read it, but the pre-packaged plot/campaign was a bit of a yawn.
