5. a shitty homebrewed Halo system my best friend made in middle school

>has nostalgia for AD&D
>played Halo in Middle School
Wut?

>ctrl f ars magica
>1 result
Heavily underrated, both in settings and in mechanics

The system is practically unrecognizable as 5e desu. I basically hacked it to be GURPS with a D20.

Other major changes:
>brought back gold=exp
>completely reworked the magic system for all non cleric and wizard casters
>changed how druid's wildshape works
>reworked armor to provide DR instead of just increasing AC
AC has actually been one of the biggest sticking points I've had. Finding a way to balance it against the attacker's skill has been a pain in the ass. I still haven't found a solution that I completely like yet
Pic not really related

1 Homebrew d20 crawler
2 Homebrew d%
3 just read a fuckin novel
4 rather get drunk and watch a movie
5 everything not homebrew is literal shit

Monsters & Other Childish Things (Probably other ORE stuff if I had the chance to play them)
Iron Kingdoms
D&D 4e
Don't Rest Your Head

Maybe his Parents used to play AD&D with him and those are some of his fondest childhood memories?

1. Fantasy Craft
2. Savage Worlds.

4. WFRP 2e
5. RIFTS

1. 5e

3. DH 2e
4. CoC 7e
5. ADnD

From 1987 to 2000 AD&D 2nd Edition was the current in print D&D. Halo in middle school suggest he was about 10 to 14 years old in 2001, and could easily have been playing AD&D as a kid.

Late 90's D&D was the shit. Dungeon and Dragon were good magazines that had had great adventures and it was easy to get a game together because I was a kid in school and willing to DM.

1 legend of the five rings 4th ed

2 terre d`amarande(homebrew of a friend based on fftactic and ogre battle)

3 pathfinder

4 shadowrun 4th ed

5 exalted second ed

5. Mythras

1. 5e
2. Gurps
3. Shadowrun 4e
4. Unisystem

ON the internet no one knows your a dog.
Just post another five. It's not like your a tripfag or antything

You two should play in a game togehter...

GURPS
Shadowrun
Dark Heresy
WoD
Degenesis

I like the lore on all of them, I only like the rules for half of them.

Wow.

Yeah. That's a real close top 5. I was considering BRP over mythras, and waffle back and forth. The other game I was considering for #5 is ffg star wars.

Not a big fan of call of Cthulhu setting wise, but I like the mechanics.

ITT: we learn that Veeky Forums apparently really likes GURPS

And yet when you mention gurps outside the general everyone still throws a tantrum.

Because muh dank maymays, my anonymous compadre

D&D4e
Shadowrun
RIFTS
HiLo Heroes
Marvel Heroic Roleplaying

D&D 5e
GURPS
Savage Worlds
Edge of the Empire
D&D4E

(I'm hoping to add starfinder to this list but as pathfinder is shit I doubt it)...

So:

Gurps friends:

What do you use gurps for? What books do you like for it?

Personally, I like it for non d&d fantasy, scifi, and urban fantasy.

Core set, modern, thaumaturgy, powers, low tech (or fantasy or dungeon fantasy), and then modern.

Never played it.

Me either. These aren't even all the books I don't have.

I use it for sci fi (it's actually pretty decent for Star Wars games with a bit of home brewing).

>WoD (both versions, despite the devs best efforts)
>RIFTS
>Shadowrun
>Assorted OSR
>Wild Talents / ORE

First and foremost, Dark Fantasy. You can get all kinds of brutal stuff going with GURPS and I love how low tech combat goes. Magic's kind of optional for me. I do like some magic-based games, but I prefer low magic for combat.

In all seriousness though GURPS looks interesting and I'll someday find a group willing to use it and build something awesome.

>memes
You must be fun at parties

I like GURPS in realistic, low fantasy games set in the dark ages/early medieval/bronze ages.

I also really like it for modern games or industrial-revolution games as well as those that revolve around mafia and organized crime. It is a blast to play.

Got to love a game where a fight between a dismounted Norman knight and Saxon huscarl is mechanically complex and interesting, as opposed to "they are both fighters in chain-mail".

>Chronicles of Darkness (Mage excluded)
>Barbarians of Lemuria
>Everyone is John
>FFG 40k
>WHFRPG 2E

Riddle of Steel
Call of Cthulhu
Shadowrun
Mouseguard
My group's homebrew Scifi

So many people who like d%... I love you all.

Let's play some d% game sometimes, it will be fun.

>Genesys
Has there been a preview of this or are you basing this on enjoyment of the Star Wars?

1. Warhammer Fantasy 3e
2. GURPS
3. D&D 4e
