[QUOTE="kinetic, post: 5239504, member: 84681"] It's a nice, simple, diceless system that has helped one kid I know really start reading. Just to share a quick story, I had always seen Warriors books at my girlfriend's work. One of her boss's kids is always packing them around, so I printed him out a copy of the game, bound it up and left it at the shop for him thinking he'd like it. Turns out, he's interested in the Warriors books but struggles like hell to read them. His mom told me he's behind on his reading and they're having him tested for learning disabilities, ADHD, dyslexia and so on because he gets lost in text really easy, gets frustrated and doesn't read more than a couple pages at a time because of it. Anyhow, I guess after he got his hands on the Warriors Adventure Game he sits down with his book and just powers through them, turning them into adventures for his brothers. For a kid that used to spend more than a month getting through one book he has been knocking them out at the rate of one a week on average. And he made me a [URL="http://www.thevigilant.net/warriors"]card[/URL]:D[URL="http://www.thevigilant.net/warriors/"][/URL] The point of this drawn out post was to say thank you to [URL="http://www.stannex.com/"]Stan![/URL] You really deserve the nomination.
