What system are you playing?

[nocac]

I'd love to know what system (FASA, DEC, LUG, or HOMEBREW) that people are playing.

If it is homebrew, can you give me suggestions for my own soon-to-be homebrew game.

Sticking with LUG here

[Phantom]

Staying with LUG, so far. Been thinking about changing to CODA, just haven't been given a good enough reason why at the moment.

Done with Trek for a while, but we were playing Coda-Trek until recently.

[Balok]

For TREK, it's CODA. But we rotate the gamemastering hat, and we're not TREKing right at the moment.

I'm Narrating the CODA Lord of the Rings RPG right now. The game is set in the early Fourth Age. Previous to this, in the summer, I ran a short 3e D&D campaign using B1 Keep on the Borderlands.

Ahh. Memories. The Caves of Chaos. A classic!

Hi All

I ran LUG Trek every second week for several years but tried CODA when it came out. I went back to LUG at the request of my players. Changing to CODA would involve purchsing a new and currently limited series of materials while not offering a sufficiently different system to warrant the change-over. While I will purchase all of the Decipher materials as they are released my players are not likely to. When there is more material available for CODA than has been produced for LUG we might revisit this choice. In the meant time we're still playing LUG and don't seem likely to change systems any time soon.

Cheers,
Scott

CODA for Trek

Victory Games' James Bond system from the '80s for modern day.

Castle Falkenstein for pulp or Victorian stuff

Yeah, the combat system was rather skewed at times in JB. I remember one game in which one of the characters got into a fight in a restaurant. It started out as your usual brawl, but the bad guy refused to submit to the pummeling so the PC picked up a bottle of champaign (a magnum bottle) and proceeded to beat the crap out of the guy...still he refused to go down. At this point the bad guy managed to get a few good shots in himself, knocking the character off his feet. Realizing things weren't going as planned the character madly scrambled for any weapon he could use, he found one and with one shot he knocked the bad guy out. What was the weapon you ask?...A loaf of French Bread!

I'm currently in an on line Pendragon game, you don't see PD mentioned very much these days.
Salvete!

It must have been very stale...

Love the James Bond system. One of those few systems I know (granted, I don't know many) where you roll once to hit and for the damages (hey, with my habit in SW D6 to roll 34 to hit and 7 for the damage, that's a definite plus )

For now, we're playing LUG. The thing is, we are in the middle of a mission that doesn't want to end (been playing it since January 1st 2002, at the rate of one or two games per month), and I didn't want to change the system in the middle. When it's finished, we'll play a holodeck adventure (sorta), so the players will see if they like CODA and if they want to convert their characters or re create them, and then we'll switch to CODA unless there's something they unanimously dislike about it.

Maybe then at least the Narrator screen will be out...

[KillerWhale]

Currently narrating a loooong Trek campaign (72 eps already!!). We used ICON and switched to CODA.

I'm playing a D20 DD campaign and will soon start playing a Star Wars (D6! Don't ever suggest me D20! ) campaign. I don't like SW really much, it's more to play with the friends...
