Dragon Warriors is a classically atmospheric British fantasy game originally published in the 1980s but which has undergone a massive resurgence in the last few years.
It has a less complex rules system than 4E which also makes adventures somewhat more dangerous - and is set in the world of Legend, an extremely well-conceived version of "fantasy Europe" in the early middle ages.
