Just a little idea I had, think it would be fun. Comment your favourite systems and the rest of us will give you recommendations for something that could possibly fit your interests.

I love dcc and cairn, and currently enjoying shadowdark immensely. Flirting with call of Cthulhu as of yesterday ( played the solo adventure), think I might take an interest in skill based systems now!

Skill based systems are kind of nice. A few recs

  • Runequest. D100 system in the same family as CoV, same publisher even. It is a fantasy system set in a near east bronze age world. Mythology matters, faith matters, community mattersand character matters. The latest version is good snd really prettty.

  • Mythras. Formerly known as Runequest 6 but Chaosium took back the license. So they removed all the Runequest stuff and republished it as Mythras. Made it as a more generic fantasy toolkit. Has a really good combat engine.

-Genesys, or the Star Wars line it came from. Uses funky narrative dice and through those creates a really dynamic narrative.
