Never realized there was a pen & paper RPG section here.

Off to a good start with my first post though:

Thaaat's an interesting bundle.  Hrmm.

Was kinda curious about most of those RPGs in the past, but didn't want to spring the big money for physical copies to see.  $18 for all those systems, in PDF format, is pretty damn tempting.

I've heard good things about 'A Song of Ice and Fire' but have never played it. I might need to pick it up.

"The Laundry," stuff is pretty good.  Runs off the CoC rules set and deals with similar themes

Similar themes to what?  Not Song of Ice And Fire, surely!

I thought The Laundry was a supernatural 'Men In Black' type of UK setting.   ???

QUOTED:

The Laundry Files Roleplaying Game is based on the best-selling novels by Charles Stross. In the game, you play officers of the Laundry, that eccentric and underfunded agency dedicated to protecting the United Kingdom from unthinkable horrors. The Laundry uses the Basic Roleplaying System - the same system that powers the classic Call of Cthulhu roleplaying game (so you can easily convert adventures from one game to the other).

As Laundry staff, you're trained to deal with the weird and ghastly spawn of the Mythos, you're equipped with the best equipment your committee-approved mission budget can buy, and you've got back-up on call from the SAS. All of that means you're only terrifyingly underprepared, as opposed to completely screwed, when the shoggoth hits the fan.

Phoneposting on my part, so I didn't do a good enough job describing "The Laundry," at that point.   A better way to describe it is if Douglas Adams or maybe Terry Pratchett decided to dabble in the Cthulhu mythos in their own unique way.  Grim, but amusing.
