Going backwards thrugh the 90 messages...
10k cards isn't THAT much -- it's only mabye 5-7x what I have.
No, Magic is not, and does not pretend to be an rpg; it's a
simulation; it's a war game; it's even good, but it isn't an RPG
*because it does not, in itself involve playing chracters diferent
from yourself*. Anyone who thinks so isn't doing either of them
right.
LB: you sound like a perfect new RPG'er, one with no
preconcieved notions -- just don't let your first time be D&D.
Kult is cool. WW games aren't as cool as they think they are, except
for Mage. Rifst counts, but isnt as good as it cooduld be. CoC is
VERY cool. Paranoia is cool, but only if you have a good GM, and not
for extended campaigns -- Funy is good, but better as filer than as
whole-campaign stuff.
TFOS is very cool, with the same (but less strong) filcaveats
as Paranoia.
None of these are as cool as as Over the Edge, though.

I agweee!!! Magic is a fun Game, I wont deny that, but by some others'
standards it isnt an rpg, just a fantasy sim game. I guess it kind of goes by
the fact that you don't have a name in Magic, and no personality, so your not
really role-playing.

I beg to differ on WW games, mneme. And don't let me forget, I'm still mad
at you.

Well, I think MTG is as close to a 'real' role-playing game as I will be
getting for a while. As to whether or not it is a 'true' role-playing game
by everyone else's definitions, I honestly care not. I think of it as a
role-playing game because, I, in of myself, do not possess the ability to
create and summon and toss enchantments...I understand everyone else's
complaints on this matter, however, I still hold my original opinion.

These card games aren't RPG's because you aren't portraying a char-
acter! They're just war-games with cards.. the wordt part is, they'r
addictive in the most evil way.
If I wasn't so fair-minded, I'd be all for burning them.

i know lots of wargamers, and they almost all have an aversion to MTG and
