Smile Any pen&paper roleplayers here...? - 07-21-2010, 08:15 PM

Didn't see any threads like this, so here we go...
Okay, I'm not sure if this is the right category, or whether or not this is too irrelevant, but I was wondering, if anyone here has played/has thought of playing any pen&paper-style roleplaying games...? (yep, I thought this is more related to gaming than to general whatnot...)
Some more info what pen&paper games exactly are: [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

I've played these for maybe 5 years now; games ranging from the legendary D&D to S.T.A.L.K.E.R. RPG, all the way to Star Wars RPG and Call of Cthulhu.
At the moment I've been a gamemaster for about two years, leading a game in a setting I've created and to which I've made rules with some of my friends.

So, anyone else here? Or maybe ppl who are interested in this sort of thing?

Well, we have "The Battle of the Thing" in the Void/forum games section, I guess you could call that an RPG...

I played (and GM'd) in the 70s and 80s. Does that count?

Anyone remember "Bunnies & Burrows"?

Oh and there was a really fun one called, umm... Was it called "Paranoia"? It was full of androids and clones and it consisted mainly of the GM devising as many humorous ways for the players to die as he could. Really funny game.

I remember Paranoia, I sometimes still have nightmares about that game.
I started with D&D in the early 80's and have played darn near everything else, except bunnies and burrows. I took one look at it and gave it a pass.
I still play the classic Battletech RPG on occasion, and the Serenity RPG

Why not?

Hahaha, that sounds really avant-garde.

If you ever get the chance, try it out!
