I play Highlander (Duncan and Kurgan), Legend of the Five Rings (Crane, Phoenix, Unicorn, and Crab), and Magic (Usually some sort of hoser deck).
What about anyone else?
Rath_Dawg: All around gamer.

used to be hard into Rage (before White Wolf sold it off). spent hours upon hours building decks. ...then I realized one day that there wasn't a single person to play it with and sadly let it go.

The Tomb Raider CCG is great -- I was skeptical at first b/c I can't stand the PC or PSX Tomb Raider games, but my hubby and I have spent many a long afternoon playing the CCG. It's really a nice game.
Magic -- I quit it almost as soon as I started. With all those expansions, rules changes, and etc., who can keep up ?
Pokemon -- yes, horror of horrors, (teehee) I play Pokemon. I've played in a couple tournaments at gaming cons here and there, but now I just play at home. Too many little 10 year olds playing cheese. :P
The Monty Python and The Holy Grail game is good -- it's hilarious once you get the game going, but getting started is tough. (The rules can be tricky to wade through.)

Muahahaha, the Awakening of the Dead Topic <TM>!
I used to play Highlander, but then they released expansions for it... bleeeah.
Used to play Magic too, and I still have a few decks for when I want to get my @$$ kicked by some punk with rich parents.
Used to play L5R too, but it was too complicated... Still is, but I'm considering getting back into it.
Try to play Raw Deal when I can, I enjoy it. Got my Kane deck and my Tazz deck. :)
Magi-Nation's pretty fun too. It's simple. It's easy to learn. It's what Magic USED to be, before Ice Age.
There's this card game that's really an RPG (it's an RPG that uses cards for items, and the cards are collectable) called Dragon Storm. I knew the authors pretty well, and it sells pretty well at GenCon and anywhere they go. I used to be one of their demo guys, but when I saw what they did to sanctioned gaming ("ooo, how can I min/max MY character?") I stopped playing... Got hella amount of cards still though, so if Rath ever swings my way I can demo it. :)
Got plenty of WarZone cards, but nobody to play with. The art is nice on it, but (in typical Target fashion) they used five pictures and reused them for most of the cards (i.e. one of the trooper cards is used for the trooper as well as the weapons he's holding and some equipment he's wearing on his belt).
I am... the gamer extrordinaire. :)

No, Mystick: Domination is the *best*...
I might buy a copy of it, maybe... You'd have to talk *Spark* into playing with me, though. :)

There's nothing wrong with the expansions...it gets pretty boring to fight the same immortal every damn time and it gave people better choices. Like my favorite, Kurgan.

It isn't about how much money you got...I was whooping people with a pre-constructed deck when they were going Type I on my ass. It's all in the cards...and even the people with the decks worth a small fortune can get beat.

Legend of the Five Rings isn't that complicated...if I can understand it the first time around...then anyone can. I'm not exactly the sharpest knife in the drawer, but it was easy for me when I was shown how to play at Norwescon back when it was only Imperial Edition and the Shadowlands expansion.
On that day, I went to the Dealer's Room and bought the Dragon and Phoenix boxes where I got my first Immortal Steel spell. I still love playing that card on my Ancestral Sword of the Phoenix when in the hands of one of my three Phoenix champions.
Rath_Dawg: People seem amazed when I pull out my three Imperial edition Shiba Ujimitsu's. And get whomped by my rabid legion of Phoenix.

Yep, I play Magic. When I tell people this, they look at me very strangely. I guess it's bcuz I'm a chick? What are "Magic" players supposed to look like? I think whoever wants to play, has every right to. My boyfriend first introduced me to the game, and now I can't get enough! The flavor text is great, pics are great, and kicking my man's butt when I whip out my Elephant Guide is great too!!!

Used to play Star Wars. Until I realized I was becoming the overly poor college student due to my buying mass amounts of cards in my search for Vader.
I still think i'm the only person never to pull a vader. Even a non-rare one. Erg.

Finally i find some ppl who play magic!!!! I only know 8..... I m telln u, if u want a lot of magic cards, and good ones, go to ebay and type in Magic The Gathering! I got over 1000 off there... They go for cheap some times..Usually always cheaper then store prices.. I think black decks suck! My best decks are usually green

I love to play with the green decks too, but there's just something about those wimpy Mesmeric Fiends that I can't get enough of... :)
