Do you have a favorite system to run each genre? And if so, what do you like about them?

For example:

  • Sci-Fi: Stars Without Number
  • Horror: Call of Cthulhu

  • Fantasy - D&D 5.0 for the most part, but we are having a good time with DragonBane
  • Space Opera - FFG Star Wars. Yeah, the dice are a bit rough to get used to after D20 systems and people find it rather "swingy," but I think it is pretty good
  • Heroes / Avatar (TLAB) - Prowlers and Paragons (Ultimate Edition)
  • Horror - I think the last time we played a horror game it was Dark Conspiracy
  • Cyberpunk - Shadowrun. I haven't played 6e or Anarchy, but I have played 1e - 5e. Looking forward to trying Cy-Borg at some point.
