Yet another gaming post.

My attempt to create a local gamers filter was a crashing failure. Again, if you are local to Santa Clara, and would like to take part in a monthly game, contact me. I may set up a mailing list on Google to make things easier. Feel free to let anyone who might be interested know.

I think one problem is my intense dislike of the most popular gaming systems. I loathe the current versions of D&D, and the "old school" revolution has little appeal. Here are the game systems I really like. Feel free to give your opinions or ask questions.

  • Ars Magica

  • Dark Heresy

  • FUDGE

  • GURPS

  • Harnmaster

  • Hero System


I really want to get back into a regular game.

Fair enough. There is a lot of that, especially in Hero. It can be countered by good role-playing.

GURPS is really best suited to more "exceptional human" level games. I could easily see doing a good Lensman game under Hero.
