Be sure to tweet, blog, or post your own with the #RPGaDay!<\/p>\n<p>For August 20, what is the most challenging but rewarding system have you learned?<br \/>\n<strong>Aser<\/strong> &#8211; I think the most challenging but rewarding system I&#8217;ve ever learned has to be Eclipse Phase. That game has so many moving parts and combat is so involved, but at the same time, it&#8217;s so dynamic and can be so incredibly devastating. There&#8217;s a lot of math but sometimes you just have these moments where everything clicks and you take out the bad guy with a perfect kill shot.<br \/>\n<strong>John D.<\/strong> &#8211; I haven&#8217;t really learned any new systems this year; first time playing Warhammer 40K and Only War is a good intro to more complex systems like Dark Heresy.<br \/>\n<strong>Jonn P.<\/strong> &#8211; I have never played a challenging system that I found rewarding. That said, I&#8217;m about to play GURPS for the first time so my opinion could change shortly.<br \/>\n<strong>Landan<\/strong> &#8211; I will say Cypher System for now.<br \/>\n<strong>Megan<\/strong> &#8211; Better Angels. There are so many things to track it can get a bit overwhelming.<br \/>\n<strong>Mike G.<\/strong> &#8211; Burning Wheel. It is very crunch, but I like a lot of the different system components, like character advancement, and how it helps move the story along.<br \/>\n<strong>Patrick<\/strong> &#8211; It is a toss up between Better Angels and Silver Age Sentinels.<br \/>\n<strong>Phil<\/strong> &#8211; Firefly RPG.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Each year we celebrate Autocratik\u2019s #RPGaDay, where we spend a month celebrating RPGs, discussing what we love and what we love about them.
