We've all come across those RPGs that deserved beter than they got. The problem usually was that they had an element that held them back from becoming more popular, and instead headed down the road to being out of print.
You know, that one game so full of goodness - except for that one glaring issue.
For me that game is: SPACE 1889
Good writing - great Setting - hell, it even had good suplements. But the system! If ever a game idea got shackled with a wonky system it didn't deserve, it was this one.
If the system had just been made with a consistent resolution mechanic the game could have done so much better.
So what games do you think could have been great, if only...
