Re: Specific tastes in gaming. We all have them, what's yours?
In reply to face-hits-ground (msg # 1):
I prefer homebrew settings, either as a player or a GM. It sucks when everyone knows how to exploit every advantage within a world or worse yet, knows everything about the world, its history, magical items, who all the power houses with in the political structures, etc. Kind of takes the mystery away from the world. With homebrew, the players only get what the GM feeds them.
Gotta love my Rolemaster as far as rule sets. With this one system, any genre can be handled, high fantasy, gritty fantasy, space age, pulp, you name it. And if you like the fact of death can always be knocking your door, check out the crit and failure tables. I guarantee any guy will groan in pain at least once and maybe the women too.
Dice color has to be a pearled emerald green, with pearled dark blue in second.
