I have Faiyum & expansion, and Coal Country.
I would trade these for something.
Faiyum is traded. Still have Coal Country.
What would you like for Coal Country? I don’t remember what I got right now but nothing that interests me that much.

I'm here for the story, not a dice game!
I mean, I'm here for the game, not the story. The story, to me, is a way to knit together the game components and make them interesting as part of a larger whole. With that said, if you're going to be using a resolution mechanic over-and-over, you want it to be quick and smooth so as to simplify all the complex elements of the game and make it playable.
I want both the game and the story. RPGs need a story, but without the game element it's just story-telling.
And in follow on to my bad dice rolling, I played Heroclix last night. I took a powerful Superman figure so I only needed 6 on 2D6 to hit. So... a dozen rolls later I'm still trying to roll a six. I mean, seriously and statistically that's nearly impossible!

I like systems that are quick and simple to evaluate. You want a generalized mechanic that works very well. I can handle a little complexity in there, but too much kills the flow of the game.

Banned for maintaining the envelope and marauding as the evicted.

I like Brute Lee and the Mousetrap, but do not think they quite make it to the level of geekiness we are looking for.
