I've played a variety of different games. However the latest would be Alternity: Star Drive, which I should be starting with some friends in the next few weeks.

I love running my Alternity Sliders/Tangents game. Aside from that I enjoy playing Rifts and other Palladium games (TMNT), Ars Magica (3rd Edition), Cthulhu, Red Dwarf and GURPS. I have not yet made the jump to GURPS 4.0, maybe eventually I will. I love how well the material is presented in GURPS, that I use most of those sourcebooks for several D20 Modern/Future games.

I forgot that I also played the Japanese (not BESM) Tenchi Muyo and El-Hazard rpg's for a little while. Also, I have the fan produces Biohazard (Resident Evil) rpg laying about somewhere, never played it though, IMO it was very poor.

I've run a D6 Star Wars game more or less uninterrupted since 1995. (There's only one player left from the original group, but the campaign continues!)

I've played many, many RPGs over the years (prime among them being Star Frontiers, Top Secret S/I, and Cyberpunk 2020), but right now, it's d20 and D6

I've played some WoD stuff--just Mage and Hunter. I've also played Shadowrun and Earthdawn, but the campaigns were godawful and I'd like to try again in a good campaign. For d20 systems that aren't D&D, I've played Star Wars and Cthulhu. Playing Cthulhu is refreshing. As a Ravenloft DM, it's nice to be the one who's driven insane instead of the one doing the driving for once. :wink:

Alright!!! I looooove the D6 Star Wars (to me d20 seemed too much like DnD in space.) Other than that I play the Buffy RPG, All Flesh Must Be Eaten, Shadowrun, and Robotech.

I have played several other games in the past, including several Palladium system (don't care for Rifts all that much though). I ran a fairly long-running investigative Nightbane, and I ran a semi-horrific Heroes Unlimited game about several refugee mutants who just happened to keep on being wrapped up into all sorts of not-nice events. My players called it the "X-Men Files" game.

My real love is GURPS Goblins (the thing I really like about GURPS other than IOU). We've only played it 3 or 4 times, but it gave me some of the best and most humorous moments in all the time I've gamed. Basically it takes place in 1830s Georgian London with goblins instead of humans. Goblins are maladapted, selfish little creatures whose shape and psyche are shaped solely by the mistreatments they went through as children. Hmm. might make good for a variant Masque of the Red Death game...

GURPS Goblins looks like a fun one, but I suspect it might be an even harder sell among the local gamers than Bunnies and Burrows.

Call of Cthulhu and occasionally Shadowrun. I recently picked up Mage: the Ascension and Nephilim.

I played Hero Quest (yeah!), Midgard and Middle Earth until I stumbled over D&D... May try C&C when it's out...

I have played a ton of games, but Ravenloft and the Angel RPG are the big ones recently. I'm seriously considering a full-scale conversion of Ravenloft to the Unisystem when I have Dungeons & Zombies in my hands.

Ravenloft, Angel and Deadlands (Classic) are the ones most likely to get the most play around me right now, though I wouldn't rule out Marvel Saga.

Chello!

I currently play and run Hackmaster....I prefer GURPS and CoC/Elric! for usual play.

I've never done a RL con, but I've thought about it.

The games I own and have run in the past are numerous...just ask my wife! ;)
