Okay fa/tg/uys, what game do you really want to get into, but can't because you can't drum up enough interest? For me, it's X-Wing.
What Game Do You Want To Get Into

Legends of the Wulin. I've been wanting to run a wuxia game since forever, and I've heard nothing but good things about it on Veeky Forums. But fuck me, the editing is god awful and looks like a royal bitch to get running. I just don't have that kind of follow through.
I seem to recall the editing in that one being absolutely atrocious. It's really a shame. I have heard good things about it as well.
FATAL, tbqfh
I too would like to roll for anal circumference.
i played X Wing once, its fun!
i want to find a game like WH40K killteam-mode but with an added TCG element where the player can influence the game and also move and attack units on a board.
A nobledark story set in the Harry Potter universe about exploring beyond the veil in the Department of Mysteries.
I firmly believe that between dementors, inferi, the endless catacombs beneath Hogwarts, the fact that Death seems to be a real creature that's cruel and intelligent, and the fact that every single magical creature seems to be spiteful and dangerous, that Harry Potter lore starts to resemble Bloodborne if you go deep enough.
i just want to play some mid-1800's settings but none of my players want to join
ideally they'd be fur traders or something exploring the louisiana purchase circa 1830 but i'd at least want to play deadlands
All of the FFG 40k games. I love the fluff for 40k. Especially the stuff from 1d4chan.
Honestly, it's three games I wanted to run but alas no one willing to play:
1. Setting is cheesiest and most cliched classic 80s-90s action movies. Puns and comic relief characters are mandatory. Players are Omikron Force, super cyber USA soldiers fighting terrorists, traitors, bandits, cultists and mutants. And cybered superpowered commies who wanna DESTROY THE USA.
2. High-powered wuxia in spirit of "Journey to the West" combined with a Kill Six Billion Demons.
3. Post-apocalyptic game in Numenera which I can desrcibe as "You are not a chosen one, you have to make yourself one".
God, yes. The All Guardsman Party stories are some of my most favorite write faggotry.
A Harry Potter LCG is actually all I want out of life right now.
If I were you, I'd get Broforce on Steam.
I have it and me and my bro had a blast with it. It's not stopping me for wish to run this kind of game.
Well, in that case, keep on keepin' on.
Anima. It looks cool, but it also looks really retardedly overcrunchy.
Wargaming. Bolt Action, Dropzone Commander, Warmachine, that kind of stuff. Don't have much of a head for tactics or overhead-view battles though, and it just doesn't sound as fun as playing in a regular RPG.
I know that feel, user. To an extent anyway. I'm god awful when it comes to tactics. I can't get anyone to play a regular RPG either though.
A nice comfy Traveller game where we travel the stars and meet new people, getting embroiled in a great conflict or something, and just seeing how we proceed.
Believe it or not, 5e. I'd love to run a totally conventional campaign of wandering adventurers in standard fantasy world fighting against an unambiguously evil dude and helping random villagers with their problems along the way. Had a lot of fun doing just that as a player in 3.5e when I first got into RPGs, and 5e seems like a major improvement.
I also really want to run Shadowrun after finally getting around to reading its eponymous Storytime all the way through.
Degenesis
5e's really good for that, running a similar game (except with more ambiguity over good/evil in humans, anything extraplanar still has alignment built in to ram home the inhumanity).
Its also a really good "starter system" for people vaguely aware of but indecisive about ttrpg, because DnD is a household name and nerd shit is reasonably popular at the moment. Plus 5e character creation is pretty great, if someone is unsure just have them roll someone up on the random charts and then change and develop it as they go, again good for people new to this stuff.
Plus the actual books have some of the most normie-friendly art ever, which has been a problem before. Try getting another woman to play when all the female characters are wizened crones or titty monsters.
What I am saying is find some new people who want to play that! If I, almost completely housebound due to chronic medical condition can do it, you certainly can!
I want to run Nechronica, but half my group isn't interested and I'd rather not have my first game of Dead Loli Insanity Simulator be with ransoms
sound cool
how big is your group
Three plus me and a sometimes guy.
Probably infinity. I like the fact you don't need to spend a fortune to play a game like 40k. I am just trying to find a good shop where they regularly play it before I go into the game. Would like to play a demo if possible at a local shop.
I'm a normie who really wants to get into 40k, enough that I'm on this board to begin with.
There are no gw stores in my city and of the two groups I found online looking for players they both seem too cringy
Could I trade the furs for pumpkins?
Have you thought about giving it a shot on Vassal?
I played a game or two with a friend of mine. It is a lot of fun, but you'll get your ass handed to you for the first little while.
Vassal?
Google it. It's a program that let's you play wargames/board games online with other people. They have a mod that let's you play 40K. No idea how up to date it is though. Especially with how pissy GW gets about their licensing.
Alternatively, I think Tabletop Simulator also has a 40K mod. Same sort of thing, but with better graphics.
You're dodging a bullet. 40k fiction is entertaining enough, but the actual game is turbocancer.
That sounds interesting! Why not try to invent it if it doesn't exist? Bringing tcg element into a smaller scale 40k campaign could make things more interesting, user
how so? I'm among the dorks who collects 40k just because I like the models. I've never really felt drawn to play it at my flgs mostly because I've been to a few tourneys and I don't like the crowd... it's made me want to try to homebrew a casual game with the same universe and models that I can play with friends who come over.
