I've been reading Kim lately, and it re-sparked my old fondness for Indian culture.  Bustling bazaars, culture clashes, caste and religious divides, tons of very different languages, and unique and dramatic locales all make for a really diverse setting.  I was thinking either colonial or pre-colonial India, or a similar, fictional setting (like Sri Raji, Sahasra, etc).  Post-colonial India would be a bit too modern and less interesting for me, personally.

I'm open to any system except free-form.  Pathfinder, Fate, D&D Next or 4e would be neat, but I'm willing to try other systems.

In case it might be useful, I found a huge list of books http://boardgamegeek.com/geekl...-themed-rpg-products .  Although many are unavailable, I thought there'd be no harm in sharing the link.

Any GMs keen on running a game like this?

This sounds really interesting, I am fascinated by Indian culture and would love to play in a game this.  so if it is a system I am familiar with (or the GM is willing to help a newbie) than count me in.

systems I know: Shadowrun 2, 3, 4th ed; DND 2, 3, 3.5; Pathfinder; 7th Sea.
Systems I am somewhat familiar with: Cortex (though I generally don't care for it), Savage worlds (due to its similarity with Cortex), and I played a one shot GURPS game once

Pleased to meet, I can consider this if you'll excuse my workload, and my fondness for D100 BRP. rMail me and we can discuss. Cheers!

Sounds good for Mindshadows by Green Ronin (Mythic Vistas). Check it out and tell me what you think.

Sahasra: The Land of 1,000 cities and Arrows of Indra are two games that might fit the bill for you.

Yeah, Sahasra is one I looked at.  Managed to get into a CoC game set in India, which is scratching the itch.

If you or anyone else wants to set up a Sahasra game, I'd give it a try, too.  Right now I've got time for another game.
