So what other games do BRP fans play ?

Note again that I didn't even try to list all the games I've played or GMed over the years, just the recent ones.

Well I tried to play ICE Cyberspace - the dystopian version of spacemaster - some years ago, but after several games I gave up on the complex rules and converted the setting to BRP. It was much better thereafter and we were able to continue to play in the formiable setting for another 2 years.

I'm a fan of Pulpy stuff. Most of the games near and dear to my heart are.

Call of Cthulhu, Adventure, Runequest, Hollow Earth Expedition, Eden Unisystem

Unknown Armies
Over the Edge
Angel/Buffy/Cinematic Unisystem
Various Indie Games
Wushu
Exalted
Vampire
D&D (Mostly, I like having a large supply of players who know the system. I do hate running it, though, since it's such a huge pain in the rear. I'm looking forward to 4th ed because it looks like they're addressing the things I didn't like and adding cool stuff.)

I get a big kick out of the various WoD games. I like the new games for mechanics and the old ones for atmosphere.

I'd like to put Wraith on my play list, but I can't get anyone to come near it.

In recent years it's really just been some Castles & Crusades and a little bit of 3rd edition D&D before that. Going back a little further we've got some Hero system and (separately) FUZION supers.

Back in the 90s I wound up playing more GURPS stuff than anything else. Except for the early 90s when there was some hybrid 1e/2e AD&D and a wonderful Justice, Inc. pulp campaign. That's pre-unified Hero rules for those who don't recognize the name.

Headed back into the 80s it was TFT (ah, sweet TFT), LBB Traveller, 1e AD&D, Moldvay Basic/Expert D&D, and much Champions. Throw in some brief flirtations with Villains & Vigilantes, Daredevils and Top Secret and I think that's really it for actual playing. There's a whole bunch of stuff I've owned but never really got to do anything with - running the gamut from Bunnies & Burrows to Big Eyes, Small Mouth with countless weird stops in between.

Hey! There's something missing in there. Actually, no. As odd as it is (given that I'm here now) I never really played any Runequest or CoC or other BRP games. I always thought the system was neat, but no one else around me was really playing it. So I'd look over my Superworld, WoW and BRP books, sigh, and then put them away for the mythical rainy day. Which never came around. Until now

Poor guy! You've gotta kidnap someone to play with!

Oh don't worry, amigo. That was the old days. In these new times, I'll be serving up steaming hot plates of BRP whether the lads & lasses want it or not

Although I encountered a few other games, the ones I actually played regularly were:

Melee/Wizard
Classic Traveller
Champions/Justice, Inc.
Toon
Monster Island

I must be the only gamer alive who didn't cut his role-playing teeth on any version of D&D. Sat in on a session once, years later. My paladin got killed in the first 15 seconds. Didn't exactly whet my appetite for more. THACO? I just don't get it.

As a Hero System fanatic, I never saw the point of GURPS. Liked the multitude of campaign supplements, though.

I actually wrote a campaign supplement for Rolemaster, and I still didn't get it. I suppose having a group of Shadow World fanatics as gaming buddies would have helped.

Games I'd like to try (looking for something simple to play with my kids):

GORE
Risus
Plain-English Role Playing
Action! System
Faery's Tale

Always thought the back story for Candyland would make the basis for a great fantasy campaign. I mean, you've got a missing monarch, a kingdom in crisis, strange locations, monsters, a board full of suspects, a moustache-twirling villain, and all the bitter chocolate bats you can eat. What's not to like?

Do you mean people actually PLAYED Toon???

How? I mean, you might as well run around your yard hitting one another with rubber balloons!

Erm... hang on... that was Killer, wasn't it?

Just too many drugs, man, too many drugs. "I'm a six foot rabbit with a machine gun and a jello grenade." Course you are.
