Which raises another question: With a limited pool of players, do you just live with the problem players or resort to cannibalism?

What do you mean resort to cannibalism? I'm diving in head first. Literally.

 

[overgeeked]

Depends entirely on the day. Today it’s:

Monty Python’s Cocurricular Mediaeval Reenactment Programme.
Toon.
Over the Edge 3E.
Pirate Borg.
Doctor Who RPG.
Star Wars WEG 1E.
Marvel Super Heroes Advanced.
Classic Traveller.

 

[Hex08]

SWADE
Castles & Crusades
Two of the Forged in the Dark games (Blades in the Dark, Scum & Villainy or Band of Blades)
Call of Cthulhu
Arcana Unearthed or Arcana Evolved. Probably the former
Tiny Taverns
The Strange

It's been 15 years since the last time we did one of these threads, so it's about time to do it again: What are your desert island RPGs?

1) HERO 4th (with Ultimate Martial Artist for HERO 4th)
2) 3.5Ed D&D
3) Paranoia
4) Traveller
5) Space: 1889
6) Numenara/The Strange/Cypher System (just Cypher, if pressed)
7) Mutants & Masterminds 2Ed
8) Luxury item- big bucket o’dice

1. Shadowdark
2. Mothership
3. D&D 2014
4. Kal-Arath
5. Solo Borg (once it is released)
6. Traveller
7. Ironsworn
8. Pirate Borg (gotta have pirates on an island, I guess)

As book probably Ptolus - City by the Spire, and as luxury some dice.
Surprised that I could easily fill the list, and have more I would have wanted to add. Had to get some solo games in there, because, you know, scheduling ship wrecks seems like a hassle.

 

[Hand of Evil]

• Zweihander
• Paranoia!
• Ghostbusters

I need to think about looking at Shadowdark.

 

[thullgrim]

Pathfinder 1e
SWADE
Blades in the Dark
One of OSE or Shadowdark
WHFRP 4e
Dark Heresy 1e
Numenera
GURPS

Luxury item: dice
Bonus book: Halls of Arden Vul or Rappan Athuk. A big fat megadungeon with tons of replay ability.

Current Mood:
1. Stonetop (PbtA): my preferred Dungeon World hack
2. Dragonbane: fun to play, fun to run, and fun to hack
3. Fate: a fully functional generic system
4. Fabula Ultima: lots of creative builds to try and styles of JRPGs
5. Numenera: great for my science-fantasy fix with lots of support
6. Call of Cthulhu: lots of modules, adventures, and eras of play
7. Blades in the Dark: the OG FitD with sandbox style play
8. Traveller: lots of material for a sci-fi sandbox game

 

[Ralif Redhammer]

In no particular order:

1. Cyberpunk Red
2. BECMI
3. AD&D 1e
4. Dungeon Crawl Classics

Which raises another question: With a limited pool of players, do you just live with the problem players or resort to cannibalism?

Problem players get stuck with the worst chores for a week.
