Revision as of 14:12, 8 September 2008

RUMI: My preference is Exemplars, Deadlands, Fantasy, then space. I'm not experienced enough with different systems to really have an opinion on what they should be played on. I think doing a trial run on various systems is a brilliant idea. So I think it'd be best if we ran a few one shots of various system contenders and see what major stories can fit into a system we like. That said, I also think it's important that we save the major storylines for when we have a good system so that we don't ruin a potentially good story with a broken system.

--Edmiao 08:30, 8 September 2008 (MST) if you guys run exemplars, we should like 4 or 5 months down the road have a cross over session with our two gaming groups. totally in the comic book spirit.

JASON: Yeah, it could be Deathmate.[1]
