It was the first time I'd seen a US rpg (<i>Fighting Fantasy</i> stuff was almost always paperback-sized) in such a handy format, and it won me over immediately.

In my weaker moments I dream of a complete system that fits into this format*, can be printed at will and my players would be willing to try. I might never buy another game again.<br /><br />* No, Microlite20 is not complete, it assumes you know the inner workings of the original D20 system and is not written with new players in mind.Aquatic Environmenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16113675513839483488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7487871339000666216.post-71632449611683507702009-09-25T15:59:34.775-04:002009-09-25T15:59:34.775-04:00Burning Wheel uses this format.

It helps that a local (quite tasty) chocolatier uses boxes for their chocolates that are perfectly suited to contain digest sized booklets/books!Viktorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04867648528753994863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7487871339000666216.post-82969441413510600732009-09-25T12:20:46.663-04:002009-09-25T12:20:46.663-04:00Oh man, that's seriously cool!Oh man, that's seriously cool!Rachel Ghoulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04765944479141792643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7487871339000666216.post-4379297697251535692009-09-25T11:38:43.759-04:002009-09-25T11:38:43.759-04:00Absolutely!
