    It's a small world for a Turn based RPG lover, that don't like the magical world.

    For all I know we got Fallout 1&2, that are a GREAT games.

    So my question to you all are..... Are there more games out there for me ?
    or do I have to play fallout 2 even 10 more times ? I realy want something
    not new, but new for me. So if someone got a good idea for me please post
    what games that are good for me to play

    Thanks ppl!

    And where have the great games gone ? It used to be so many and now so few.
    I don't realy play any new games, only old ones, they are still the best :wink:

    Arcanum is TB, sorta, and lets you play technology oriented characters. Prelude is TB, but it's a fantasy game, although very good one. ToEE, Silent Storm, and upcoming SS: Sentinels feature outstanding TB combat, fantasy and WWII respectively.

    Don't forget the Jagged Alliance games. Not RPGs per se, but modern day-setting dungeon crawls.

    Then there's Prelude to Darkness, which is a non-traditional fantasy CRPG that has a really kick ass turn based system.

    Gearhead is kind of post-apoc and turn-based. Big robots, lots of guns, lots of skills, and its free. No magic either. There's a news item about it on the front page.

    Well, VD didn't post the whole name, nor a link. If he'd just searched for "Prelude", he would have googled up a bunch of sites talking about Hondas.

    Yup, or here's a link to our game info about Gearhead, since the latest versions of it seem to crop up anywhere from Yahoo groups to rogue mirror sites.

    How could I have forgotten to plug my favorite Political RPG. Liberal Crime Squad is quite fun, if you can force yourself to learn how to play it. The manual is really inadequate for a game of its complexity. It's TB and has no magic!

    Anyway, here's the link: http://bay12games.com/lcs/

    You are assuming that he managed to miss that huge neon sign "Prelude to Darkness, Hosted RPG forum!" :wink:

    College students are useless to kidnap and SUVs tip over a lot in getaways.

    Instead, kidnap news anchors and spare no expense in brainwashing them. And steal sportscars. Black ones. And fill them with seduced agents.
