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.

What RPG Will You Be Playing In One Year?

A combination of True20, Savage Worlds, Mongoose Traveller, and some scattered Call of Cthulhu one shots.

I'm officially abandoning D&D in all of its incarnations (with the possible exception of something like Labyrinth Lord).

There's also a possibility for Mutants & Masterminds 2e to slip in there somewhere.

QuoteWhat system is Starblazer Adventure supposed to use? Cause from the little cube7 blurp it sounds like it would be the ticket to run a Dan Dare adventure.

It uses FATE.

Running
The Pernicious Light, or The Wreckers of Sword Island;
A Goblin\'s Progress, or Of Cannons and Canons;
An Oration on the Dignity of Tash, or On the Elves and Their Lies
All for S&W Complete
Playing: Dark Heresy, WFRP 2e

When is Rogue Trader due out? If it's by next year then probably that and my Dark Heresy stuff. Cuple that with my adoration of the WFRP 2e boos I own and I can see lots of WFRP/W40K stuff going on.

I totally dig Savage Worlds, so that. I can do almost anything with that little $10 book (even use it for the system to go with the setting info in my WFRP/40K books if I so desired). I can't see myself quitting any time soon.

nWoD. Love it.

I haven't purchased a whole new system since I got my SW:EE book. I don't need myself needing anything beyond the games I have. I have my gritty game system, I have my universal game system (I own Necessary Evil, Runepunk, Shaintar, Solomon Kane, and Necropolis 2350 for it; that covers a LOT of ground), and I have my gritty horror system.

For me, probably the same games I've been running or playing for the past 20-odd years (old TSR primarily) and Traveller (which I've only been running for the past 2 years).  Something new might work its way in there, too; it usually does.
For fuck\'s sake, these are games, people.

And no one gives a fuck about your ignore list.

Quote from: Spinachcat;290160Rune Tank - because it will be published by the end of 2009 so it will also need to be demo'd at cons.   Unless my brain shatters under the bizarro nature of spell casting tanks going on adventures.  

This sounds interesting. Do you have a link or any more explaination?

The system I'll be playing will be EABA, since we've pretty much adopted that as our go-to system for whatever we play.

As for setting - I'm not sure :-)

The solo game for my wife set in a dark future setting will probably be wrapping up in about a year - no idea what we'll play after that.

My regular group is currently on hold while one player deals with a major illness - not sure if we'll play again, as there were issues in the group just before we had to stop that need to be sorted out.

Quote from: Zachary The First;289782As the topic says:  what RPG do you think you'll be playing a year from now?  Will it still be 3e, 4e, or OD&D?  Is there a game you'd LIKE to play a year from now?  Anything you plan to switch to?  What's your prediction on what you'll be playing in one year?

What I'd LIKE to play in a year from now ?

I'd LOVE to be a player in a GURPS game or a SAVAGE WORLDS session or two.  Playing a character in a TRAVELLER game would be fun again - just being a player.

....HOWEVER, I'll probably wind up being the GM again.

Whats more olikely is that I' will be stressed put a year from now because of work, financial issues, or health problems in my family. I'll be damn lucky if I can get together with friends and have a game session or two.

Starblazer uses a variant of the FUDGE system. It does it very well, getting rid of the number one flaw that system had, the stupid "fudge dice".

I think Fudge dice are kind of fun, but whatever works.

I have no idea what I will be playing in one year. It is too far away.

I know I wont be running anything d20 or D&D for a while. I need a serious break from stat blocks and level progression, as a GM anyway.

...Wierd. The first load of the page, I got text that sorta resembled peoples' posts and was sorta readable. Almost like someone ran it through an obscuring program.
The main problem with government is the difficulty of pressing charges against its directors.

Given a choice of two out of three M&Ms, the human brain subconsciously tries to justify the two M&Ms chosen as being superior to the M&M not chosen.

Shit, Narf is on to us.

Abort mission.

Well, the 100% true and honest answer is that I don't have a fucking clue. That said, I intend to be still running my RQ Vikings game, and also I will have finished my Gates of Karshit RQ campaign and will be playing Griffin Island in my RQ homebrew.

Probably I will be running CoC, because I always end running the fucker. It's so good.
My name is Ramón Nogueras. Running now Vampire: the Masquerade (Giovanni Chronicles IV for just 3 players), and itching to resume my Call of Cthulhu campaign (The Sense of the Sleight-of-Hand Man).

Imperator

Well, let's see what happened.

I'm still running my RQ game The Gates of Karshit (coming to a close this Saturday actually), so we haven't started yet Griffin Island. I intend to propose the players to make their PCs cross a planar rift (described as Ningauble's cave in Lankhmar world) so they travel out of the Earth to retrieve the Sword of the Winds and get some flying mounts (Griffin mounts! That rocks!)

Also, as I predicted, I ran CoC but RL got in the way and it's on a hiatus. Sucks. We're starting any time soon (chargen is this Sunday) a campaign of Mutants in Shadows, a Spanish game where Jason Bourne meets the X-Men. You play a mutant secret agent working for a mutant secret service that fights the secret services of the main governments, who try to enslave your people and use them as tools, while the world ignores all this shadowy war.

How much does that rock? It breaks my rocking threshold, I say. Also, the villians of the campaign will be neonazis, which is a plus always.

How about you?
