Hey Folks!

Looking to get into a game or two soon. I've played a bit of D&D and similar systems over the years. I'm looking to get into something with plenty of combat and some exploration, more so than the heavy role playing or story driven stuff. I recently picked up Forbidden Lands and like the looks of that but I'm open to other systems, mostly ones where I can buy PDFs rather than access to a website for the rules, if you know what I mean.

Welcome, buczkowski. Forbidden Lands is a great game, got the boxset. The hex crawl portion was a little bit tedious on play by post but organized folks could make it sing.

Welcome! Some games here do really well combat-driven when players and GMs keep up the momentum of those fights. Hope you find some that work for you!

Welcome to the community, buczkowski! I'll second what a couple of folks have mentioned above. Forbidden Lands is great and would be good fun in PbP if everyone was vested in making it successful. It does loan itself to a more high-level narrative style rather than heavy RP if that's your jam.

Welcome to Gamers' Plane!

About a year ago, I had the pleasure of GMing a Forbidden Lands game right here on the site. Like many adventures in that grim and perilous world, it culminated in a total party wipe—but what a ride it was! =)

It was a public game, so if you're curious (or just want to see how not to survive the Forbidden Lands), feel free to check it out here.
