I never thought we'd branch out of dnd 5e but 2 years later with my table we've dabbled in Lancer, Legend of the Five Rings and are looking forward to a Dragon Age game that uses the AGE system. We'll finish a campaign... someday!
Plus, someone's actively looking for a system that'll simulate managing a "House" ala Game of Thrones and waging a mass battle / war against other Houses. Anybody got a suggestion?
I'd also be interested in a GoT game like that, but haven't found one yet
For your last request, look into The Sword, The Crown, and The Unspeakable Power.
Preach.
So far we have not gone beyond D&D 5e where we started, but I hope to get them to try out Cyberpunk Red next.
That's a start! As long as people aren't getting locked into a single system I'm happy. There are hundreds of great indie systems to try! Mork Borg (and hacks like Bork Borg), Thirsty Sword Lesbians, Powered by the Apocolypse (and the MANY hacks), Monster of the Week, the list goes on!
TSL is so good!
After one shot: “we could probably do more with these characters.”
And then you’re in a campaign.
Overall PbtA is awesome for intense dramatic action.
