Video Games are great and all but i'd like to talk about another great kind of gaming that I love. That's right i'm talking about table top role playing games, card collecting games and miniature war games. While these three are pretty different beasts and could easily have their own threads I figured this thread could be a place we could discuss what we love and hate about various systems.
Currently i'm playing a few games but i'm always on the lookout for more
Frostgrave: A fantasy skirmish game where each player takes on the role of a wizard from one of 10 schools of magic and then builds his war band. Each wizard is usually accompanied by an apprentice and the rest of the band is made up of over a dozen other henchman types. The game is a pretty quick one (usually less than 2 hours) and is a lot of fun for those who enjoy spell casters as there are just shy of 100 spells for your wizards to learn.
Warhammer 40k: This one has been a favorite of mine for the last 23 years and going strong. A tabletop war game that set in an apocalyptic scifi setting where players face off with large armies on (usually) custom made tables. This one is a huge time and money investment but it pays off when you crush your enemies and see them flee before you and your mighty orc army. Painting and customizing the minis, terrain and table are a huge draw for some but be prepared to say goodbye to large chunks of money to get what you want.
Starfinder: Based on Paizo's very popular D20 game Pathfinder, Starfinder is a great pen and paper rpg set in a sci-fi world of aliens, diplomacy and of course space battles. It's a little math heavy just like it's sister game Pathfinder but the game play is smooth and just like Pathfinder character creation is detailed and allows for a ton of customization.

(and Cultist Simulator made me reread the rulebooks for Unknown Armies, Kult, Silent Legions and The Whispering Vault as well
