I love throwing Earthdawn into these discussions because it is a point-buy/skill-based system with classes. Matter of fact, the only...

Ooh, I love role-playing characters. "Hey elf, when can you cast spells again?" "Tomorrow after I have got a full night of reverie."...

So my overall experiences I kind-of-sort-of played BECMI in that we rolled dice and attempted to do things based on what we thought...
