Inb4 someone makes a joke about tables.
So I wasn't sure where to put this so if it's in the wrong board feel free to move it. Does anyone play any tabletop rpgs like Dungeons and Dragons and the like? I've been a Dnd guy for a few years now but have recently started branching out into others like Starfinder, GURPS, and especially Champions. Mostly a player, but have recently been trying my hand at dming.
So, does anyone have any interest of their own they want to share? Favourite games or moments? Hell, maybe even setting up pur own campaign of something over roll20?

Always wanted to play DnD, it's just gotten more of a desire in me since Ace Bennett got into it since he's a state's away friend. |

I used to be a D&D player from around 1983 to 1986. My brother would always be DM. He still has all of his manuals. He'd mess with our characters if we pissed him off, too. He recently got his niece & her fiancee into it. Longest continuous game we played was 14 hours. Lots of good memories.

I play D&D once a week with my friends. I started a little over a year ago. We currently are in two campaigns, one of which I am a Tiefling Paladin of revenge who is set on vengeance against the humans who have shunned him from society and the demon whose lineage he is from and a Dragonborn "heavy metal" Bard, who is basically a big idiot who plays air guitar all the time. It's alright, though I prefer doing other things with that group like play Magic the Gathering.

Dungeons and dragons always seemed kinda neat to me. I don’t think I could stand playing it though cause of all the dice and sh*t. I’d probably have no idea what’s happening.
Me and my friends do play “dungeons and dragons zombie apocalypse” sometimes but we don’t actually play D&D when we do. We just give a scenario then the others gotta say what they’d do and go on for half the night.
Once I have my friend Forest the scenario that he woke up in the school and ran into our business teacher Mr. K and he killed a bunch of zombies with a stapler and when he ran out of staples started using his bare hands so since then (this was about a year ago) it’s been a running joke between us that Mr. K is a stapler wielding bad ass. Lol

I clicked on this thread thinking you were sharing your collection of big rectangular pieces of wood 😂

I don't play but I do like to hover over the groups playing when I go to comic shops. I think it's Hero Clix or something simular but they're playing on these diorama type maps. Not gonna lie, looks pretty cool.

I've never played D&D but I splurged on both Kickstarter Ghostbusters 1 & 2 with all of the stretch goals. I've been told it is very similar to D&D (not sure if that's true). My friends would joke on me saying I spent all this money on them and I'll probably die before we ever play them. I've had them since release and finally opened and played them about 3 months ago. Had a blast! My group of friends now come over and we play these or some other game every other Thursday.

I have this image saved on my phone and there's so much to like about it. I haven't ever played a game like these, but we have a store in my mall that sells all sorts of games like this and has a huge group of guys who play in the back and I'm intrigued, but outside of walking by that's probably as close as I'll get to going in there. But I see this photo and it just drives me to recreate it in my house.  |

Always wanted to play DnD, it's just gotten more of a desire in me since Ace Bennett got into it since he's a state's away friend. roll20 is basically a virtual table. You just make an account and then someone can host a game on there online. Of course, you'd need the book or a pdf of it and those aren't free, but the point is if you've got a mic, you can technically play without leaving the comfort of your home.

But I see this photo and it just drives me to recreate it in my house. That is rad! My buddy's got a similar setup that we used during our last dnd campaign before it fizzled out. Same idea though; big table, plenty of chair space, shelves limed with games and other nerdy memorabilia. It's definitely an intriguing hobby if you haven't tried it before. I remember for the longest time I was interested, but wasn't sure. Went over to my friend's house and he basically put the book in my hand to make a character for dnd and I've only gone ahead from there. |

Never D&D. Ive played Magic for about 15 years though. Over the last 5-6 Ive gotten into the euro games and such. I have Catan, Seafarers expansion, and the 5-6 player expansion. Ive got a couple Dominion sets and so do friends. King of Tokyo and New York, Tsuro, Smallworld, Splendor. Also played this game Photosynthesis recently that was fun.

Edit: Oh, there is one thing I always wanted to know. When playing Magic, there isn't anything where like you lose your cards and have to give them to the other person is there? What I play with will be what I leave with, right? |

I vaguely remember also playing a game called Morrow Project. I think it was D&D in the future after WW3.

There were cards in the very beginning that were “ante” cards, but they were banned in all formats, and never reprinted. |

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Other Strangeness is a good have to start with imo. It was my first foray into gaming. It was licensed before the cartoon in the 80s so it's all about the comic. And for those of you who don't know the TMNT comics, they are very adult-oriented. There are A LOT of characters, species, etc to choose from so you can enjoy the game even if you aren't a Turtle fan.
