This book gives you 3+ full roleplaying game systems all based around a "machine shop" kind of mentality. Choose one that you like, or pick pieces and parts to hack your own together. While there are not a ton of canonized examples of the more in-depth rule pieces (like Abilities and Talents), there are enough examples that you can come up with your own. Get this if you want something more than a toolkit RPG and like to hack games together to tell the stories you want.
Ratings Explanation
The following components make up a rating:
Ratings. The ratings that users enter
into this index are each averaged into the final rating with a weight of
between 0 and 4, with weight based on trust algorithms.
Reviews. Each review is averaged into the
final rating with a weight of 8. Sometimes reviews can skew high, but they
also display fan interest (or disdain) in a product.
Content. The average rating of each
content--before its own bayesian weight is inserted--is averaged into
the final rating. The weight of a content is equal to its own weight
divided by the number of contents, and divided again if it only
appears in a fraction of editions.
Bayesian Weight. A rating of 5.00 is inserted into the final rating with a weight
of 35. This is an arbitrary weighting of
the average rating that keeps things toward the center until they're
better rated.
