Right now, we’re into a good campaign of Hollow Earth Expedition, but there’s a few games that are on the back burner for the near future.
Atomic Robo — this is more pulp goodness, but this one tends to focus more on Science! and big robots. There’s a few things i was thinking about doing with it, not the least being tossing the comic books’ “canon” and just borrowing the stuff I want. The stripped down Fate system is much faster to play than Ubiquity, which powers HEX.
Unnamed system X — Black Campbell Entertainment is going to be releasing it’s own system, and that means playtesting. I have an idea for a near future dystopia game, as well as an espionage story, that I want to use to test the system.
Dungeons & Dragons, 5th Edition — I haven’t played fantasy for 30 years and with good reason: it always seems some derivative Tolkein pap. I have an idea for short campaign that I’d like to play in 5th Ed. simply because it reminds me so much of a slightly improved version of AD&D from when I played in high school. (So it’s probably a nostalgia kick.)
The one most likely to get played, I suspect, is Atomic Robo, but who knows..?

I regularly play in two game groups. For one of the groups I’m still running an All For One campaign that started in 2012 so we’ll be revisiting that in September. For both groups I am now running either Barbarians of Lemuria or BoL based games such as Dogs of W*A*R – they’re proving very popular so these will likely keep going for a while.
Further down the line I will be looking at some Covert Ops from DwD Studios and I will also go back to James Bond RPG (probably using the Classified updated rules).
Savage Worlds is always popular in my groups as well, and now that I’ve recently purchased the Revised Rippers I’ll be updating my old campaign. That and some Lankhmar.

A lot of our gaming, right now, is Ubiquity — Hollow Earth Expedition, in this case. We’ll be doing a lot of this for the near future, as we playtest the modules that Black Campbell will be releasing soonish. I’ve got the Ubiquity and Fate versions of one already done, the Savage Worlds version will be finished soon, and I’m mostly done with the writing on the next Ubiquity product…
We’re working on a new system — no catchy name for the engine — which will be oriented toward espionage games for the first iteration. I expect we’ll be doing a lot of playtest on that next year.

Well, if you need/want a playtest group for your new game I have two groups who will be willing to try it out. We’ve recently playtested John Carter and BareBones Wuxia.

I was disappointed with the packet for John Carter. I hope they are more clear in their explanation of the mechanics in the final product, but the experience was enough to put me off of their Star Trek line.
I will keep you in mind for the playtesting, when it comes.

Yeah, I understand what you mean about John Carter. That said, we had fun and it’s early days. I still feel that it has potential and I’m keeping my fingers crossed that it will turn out OK. I’m already invested in the Conan RPG when it comes out but, like you, decided to avoid the Star Trek line.
